A lovely high key image where my eyes can play hide and seek amidst the silk. This photo stands out in an interesting way from most of your shots I know.

I wish this was in natural color and not sepia. I can imagine the bounty of colors represented here! 5 for the quality of the image.

Very pretty model, but I'd like to see more of her. Maybe it was the intent to leave more to the imagination but I feel there is too much dead space around the face. Jacko. 7

Like the hi key sepia tone and the beautiful subject with all the flowing fabric about her. I am distracted by the piles of packages(?) on both sides and the women on the right. I think they could have been cropped without losing too much of your subject.

Gorgeuous photo, but there's an eerieness with that girl on the right, almost like a ghost caught in a photo.

Good idea but I find myself being instantly and permanently transfixed to the lovely high key figure in the background - I'm sure I'm not supposed to but this is the way it works for me - sorry.

Beauty is a subjective thing, I know. In my scoring and comments I'm trying to score based on NOT whether or not I would think a particular subject beautiful, but on whether the photographer has succeeded in creating a beautiful photo. I look for the elements of color, lines, focus and dof interest, lighting, and a certain element of grace and lovlieness. I'm looking for a unique and creative appeal for the highest scorers. The description says to create a photo that makes the viewer think "that's beautiful", so it will undoubtedly be very subjective. (This is what I'm putting at the start of all of my comments, and I hope it is helpful.)

That being said, I don't get a whole lot from this photo. I like the sheer fabrics, but I can't really tell what's happening here. I think part of the drawback for me is that there is a lot going on in the background. It seems to distract from the major elements of the front woman and the material. I haven't seen the color version, but these tones don't seem to add interest to the shot for me. I do like the unique subject and the flow of the material, but it just doesn't make me think "beautiful."
