Blech! Probably my least favorite fashion era ever!
All while I was taking and editing this picture I had Madonna stuck in my head. Hence the title.
Oops.. I meant to pull this one out before the challenge started. I didn't like it, but I didn't not like it. I did, however, realize about the background and meant to do that.

Before we start on this image, I just want to say how much I enjoyed your "I didn't do it" pic. It certainly did deserve all the accolades it received.
Okay, to the matter at hand. I guess your commentors really hit the nail on the head when they discussed the model's closeness to the background and the fact that the background is so bland. Other than that, I think the image is cropped well and compositionally okay. The skin tones were done nicely and the image certainly met the Challenge.
I can't go much further than that because your camera settings are not listed. When you request a comment from the Critique Club, it helps us a great deal if we have your technical information as well as those all important notes in the Photographer's COmments column. And thanks for entering those notes.
Looks as if you are having fun at DPC and I'll look forward to seeing more of your images in the future.
