Love the lines going in all directions. Melethia is right - the font color does match the legs, LOL! Great!

Susan, this is hilarious! What a great spoof. The color looks deathly pale all right - perfect!

Hey there from the Critique Club

Camera Work/Technical: Crisp focus on the on the woodwork, but the legs seem to lose some sharpness with your depth of field. Nice work with the colors and post-processing to create a nice, pale set of legs.

Lighting: Very nice and even. No blown highlights and no details were lost in the shadows.

Composition/Content: I agree with Kelly on the border, but I do like the overall composition. I like it even more after reading that you were upside down when it was shot. I think that those borders could have been half that size, maybe even less, and the layout would have looked better.

My Opinion: I do like it, but I think that I'd like it more with less border and better focus on the legs.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

Not a great composition for me - the thick borders do not add much to the overall look (although I do like how you lined up the letters DPL with the border - that is nice).

SHAVE ME

My legs are blue
What can I do
but dream of you

as you shave me

hold them aloft
they'll be so soft
when the hair comes off

as you shave me

electric disposable silvery blades
descending to sing me a sharp serenade

shave me shave me shave me

waving like a see of hair
over here and under there

shave me shave me shave me

Heh! Not only are they pale, but they're blue! Interting concept, like the presentation, especially how the lettering matches the leg color.

Like the angle and use of leg colour for text. Legs look a little blue on my monitor - a bit more dead pale - which is a bit uncomfortable. I guess that makes it a hit.

I'm not sure the blue legs make them look dead.
