Hi again,

I still like this photo, although I don't think the full desaturation helped it much. When I mentioned saturation issue, I was assuming the original photo had already been desaturated, but not turned to B&W. I recall the first commenter mentioned that you needed more light and in retrospect, I suspect the light was responsible for both the color case and the "low saturation".

I feel this version of the picture could use some added contrast and, perhaps, either leave the boarder white, as in the original, or make it black. My personal preference is for higher contrast images; We all have preferences.

In any event... this photo still pulls me to it. Sorry for going on and on.

I like this one better than the other one. The second commenter in the other one made a good point about the desaturation - either go the whole way (as you did here) or bring the color back. I also agree with him about the alternative to the model not looking at the camera (as I had suggested) which is to have her look at the camera in a very "come hither" way. That's an excellent suggestion. Either she isn't aware of your presence, or she is trying to seduce you. But her smile here is just a nice smile - almost motherly. And no one should ever see their mother's butt! Although this woman has a very nice one.
