Self image using macro settings which of course caused a shallow dof causing the right corner to appear a little soft.

My favorite movie is 9 1/2 weeks and the best scene in the movie is when Mickey Rourke teases Kim Bassinger's nipple with the ice. Seemed like the movie heated up after that.

<--Critique Club -->

Funny, my first Critique as a CC member is a nipple; my wife would say "it figures".

First off, I think this is a good idea for temperature and does bring cold to my mind (among other things).

So how would I improve on this image?

First I would have shown more of the breast, perhaps backing out far enough to see both sides, while also showing the finger tips holding the ice cube, although adding that may have been interesting but at the same time might have taken away from the overall focus of the image.

As far as the nipple itself, I would have moved slightly down a bit probably about 3 inches or so to show an almost side view of it because the area above and to the left is drawing my eye there, taking the attention away from the droplet coming from the ice cube. Also the droplet on the left of the breast is a bit (not too much, just a little) distracting.

Overall its really good idea for temperature, nice job.

don't find this flattering, or erotic.. I can see you hit the challenge but visually not a very stirring image... Maybe I would have gone for it mre in colour? Don't know, sort of passes me by this, sorry

Maybe should be in "Nude"

I think this shot could have had more a feeling of temp. if it were in color. the background needed to be lit up more. the shadow from the ice is over powering the rest of the shot. The concept is great on the other hand:)

Good idea, but too close? I think that showing at least the whole breast would have made for a more powerful, and sexier, photo.
