the blue flash is a little distracting, but the black background is silky smooth

Lovely capture. A little red reduction would have worked more to the neck and upper chest area. The facial expression is tops with lovely eyes, nose and sensous lips. Bumping up.

Beautiful shot.

Try cropping a bit more off of the top for an even more powerful composition.

Nice angle! Really make her eyes and tit stand out :-) hottie too! 8

She looks like a robot. LOL I think it would have been better without the red strap.
Good luck in the challenge.

The pose and crop are okay and the model is beautiful, but the lighting makes you look a little bit like you're made of wax. More flattering light could have done wonders for this shot and model. Not a bad effort at all though.

i would have liked her looking into the camera

Poor thing, did her bra slip off her breast? ;-)

Nice shot, great focus on the face. Good composition and crop, nice, maybe a bit too even lighting. Not sure I care for the border too much.

That is a very effective picture that shows how much nude can be so far from porn. My eyes are equally drawn to her nice facial features than her breast.

Nice focus on the eyes/face. I think this image would work better if the focus on the rest of the model was softer. As it is, it feels to me like it's supposed to be in focus, but it's not, so it's distracting (just my personal opinion). Also, I'm not really getting the connection to the title.

I like the focus on her eyes and the color of the lighting. She seems somewhat stiff though which doesn't fit the title. I find the freckles on her chest pretty distracting. Perhaps a gausian blur ( which is legal for this challenge ) would have made your models skin more flattering. Shes's a beautiful model .

Nice shot. Lighting looks ok, but seems a little bright for this kind of shot. Overall, good job.

Her eyes are great.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/24/2005 10:06:59 PM
Wonderful eyes, though the crop seems to be a tad too tight for this pose.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I love the hair, and the lighting, while slightly harsh, it works here. The bikini is actually a distraction where it's at. I think it either being completely gone, or covering the nipple would have made this a better image, even in a nude challenge. Good Luck.

Light is just a little harsh but love this anyway. 9 and to favorites

The eyes are great with her stare. The freckles seem washed out.

I'd like to have seen more in focus. I feel the arm is distracting with it's fuzzyness. The nudity in this image almost seems like a mistake, she's still wearing her shirt, but it's just not on. Something is also strange with her eyes, they seem to be looking in different directions, I'm not sure why that is, maybe just a weird angle? 6.

The lighting on her face is wonderful. I like her expression too. The bra is a little oversaturated I think and maybe a little distracting. I'd almost prefer it gone completely, but I get the "inhibition" title. Bumping to a 7.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like the prone position, maybe would've cropped just barely below the breast to gain symmetry with the eyebrows and mouth ... maybe. Nice shot, 7

Her eyes are pretty. I like the warmth the lighting gives to the picture.

About the most beautiful eyes I seen in a photograph. Gorgeous portrait!

my oh my, no need for inhibition. great composition and lovely model.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Well done technically, but boring compositionally, also lighting is a bit harsh for such fair skin. 6
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Not fond of the expression (lack of one), it's just like you drugged her put her in the picture.
08/22/2005 09:07:56 PM
Nice and crisp on the eyes and face with a good dof. I think it might add to the image to have her look at the camera, but I'd have to see that to say one way or the other. I do like her expression.

The eyes are beautiful and sharp. The image portrays shyness well.
Crop is pretty harsh on the right. Colour seems pretty yellowish, but I am on my not well calibrated monitor at home.

this model has wonderful eyes. She would make for greta portraits. The exposed breast looks awkward in this photo, like the photographer said quick expose a nipple reaal fast. It does not seem to be part of the image. There is a lot of potential but the images is lacking a certain flow.

The model looks very uncomfortable and the lighting could be better. I'm not crazy about the orientation... maybe rotate 90 degrees. I do like the cropping though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/22/2005 12:58:32 PM
the color is way off on this models skin. looks like you are using the wrong kind of lighting. I'd suggest shooting next to a window for the natural tones. the composition/ crop is wonderful! the border just isn;t doing it for me. with such a simple beautiful photo it is kind of distracting.
(I just thought of something that might help the skin tone- selective color in the yellow channel. try messing around with that!)

Well done. The splash of red works nicely. 8

Good focus on her left eye and nice lighting. The sparkle in her left eye really gives some life to the shot. I think I would like this shot a little more with a deeper DOF to keep her right eye, hair and shoulder in sharper focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
08/22/2005 01:35:38 AM
i think the shot is a bit too yellow cast on the skin tone. (tungsten light source?)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful face. I wish the light weren't so yellow. Maybe work on desat a little. HEr eyes are just stunning.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very pretty eyes. Can't say much for the pose - she looks dead or in a trance. Lighting is a little harsh and yellow. A good effort though.

Lighting and color leave something to be desired, but good compostion and subject.
