I absolutely love this.
I love the period it harkens back to. I love the execution, the pose, the tone and colour, the light, the noise and I of course adore the model.
Another fantastic image, I'd like this one on my wall!

Very artistic as usual, Svetlana! I did not recognize you with your blonde hairdo. Great finish for a great cover!

Once again, I like your entry a lot. The left shoulder looks a little bony and attracts my attention too much, but I love the processing and of course the model.

edit: Oh, I am understanding the shoulder better now. That is the scarf causing the bony effect.

Wow! What a brilliant photo -- and idea for this challenge! This totally blows me away. I'm so surprised this isn't on the front page!

DPL was formed by three people who had the same dream... every night. Isadora Duncan would approach them, wearing only a scarf and a hatband. She would just stare at them. She said she needed new music to dance to. They would wake up with their heads full of melodies... the same melodies. One learned to play the violin, another the bass, and the third learned to sing and play the piano. They made one magnificent album and then after that... they stopped dreaming.

Nice use of grain, and a nice pic to start with. Looks like a real album cover. Should be in the top 10. 8

nice image with a "graphite" appeal to it. Good lighting and portrait.

I'd like to see the title just a little lighter for clarity, but the image is quite nice - the grain works well and the composition suits the format.

like the soft grainy look, sultry. perhaps if the title was clearer and something more period with the art-deco feel

beautiful photo and pp. The only thing bothersome IMO is that the type is almost lost and I really had to strain to read it.
