Yeah...I prolly sold out a bit with this one. I'd do it again, too ;)

Given that this is an online *contest* it seems to me that the goal would be to win - or to try at least. That means going for mass appeal, and in this case I think a more commercial approach to the challenge made sense (and looking at the top scoring images I'd say I guessed correctly).

All that said, this isn't my favourite personal style of shot...but typically I don't submit my *favourite* stuff to challenges, because what I like doesn't tend to have mass appeal.

So yeah - I stooped a little. But I make no apologies for it. I set out to win a ribbon and a bet with Kiwi - and I did both of those things, so I'm content.

My January free-study is another story. I went against the theory and submitted something I LOVE over one that would likely have scored better - don't think you'll see me on the front page of that one :P

thanks for all the comments - both in favour and against the shot...I appreciate it all.

The Rolling Stone's sum up my feelings about this shot in this line from their tune, ironically entitled, "Angie".

'...there aint a woman that comes close to you'

An incredible beauty....mmmmwwwwaaaaahhhhhh!!!

I wont be pretending, ill just say should be said. That is a hell of a body with two hell of a tits. The model abviously knows this (this is a self photograph) and is proud, she eas all rights to do so. the attitude shows that as well. I think that most hetrosexual men would agree with me when i say that i would have nothing against sleeping with that model, she looks really good.

I really like this photo but I feel you missed something here. She has very fine body lines and I would think that as beautiful to the eye as she is there is more you could do with her besides put her in a typical college boy turn on pose. You are a very good photographer I can see that but try her in something a little more natural next time.

It must have been a bit cold in the old studio; nice lighting though :}

I think you ALL have it wrong. Oman Otter, while you make a good arguement, I think the wording should be STUNNING tits. They certainly are.

And Pedro, from the photography standpoint, very well done. Let's just all agree that this is appealing on many levels. Look at how many views "nudes" gets anyway on the DPC menu anyway.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/12/2007 05:20:20 PM
I think this photo is fantastic, the lighting is perfect and I have to agree with OmanOtter, the surgeon did nice work. lol
The lighting on her right hand is a bit bright but I don't think it distracts the viewer from the focus of the photo at all. I do think the word "tits" demeans this photograph in all ways. Breasts would be a more classy and I feel appropriate term. :) It is very nicely done.

02/12/2007 02:31:54 PM
I can accept all that. And it IS an excellent photo -- masterfully presented. But you could make an awful lot of money marketing it to college-age men - even more if you re-shoot it with her holding a bottle of beer. And that's the thrust of my defense of Hughie's comment. I know that you, as photographer, want feedback on how well or poorly you photographed her. But you chose her for a purpose, and you posed her the way you did for a purpose. You achieved what you set out for -- which is much more than to just shoot a good photo. Your photo appeals to the core of (especially young) male sexual desire. You reached into our collective male libido and smacked us over the head with our deepest desires. If all Hughie could manage to get out was a breathless "Nice tits!", it's no wonder. His brain was probably on overload and it was all the poor guy could muster. I can't say I blame him.

And, yes, it's also because you presented and captured her attributes so damn well. She doesn't get all the credit, and neither does her surgeon! You crafted the presentation and captured the scene. Well done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
02/12/2007 02:54:26 AM
don't get me wrong - I'm not denying that at all. Obviously she was chosen with a purpose. Of course I want you to *think* that when you see it. However, my interest still lies in the photograph when it comes to the comments I receive. I don't need someone to point out her finer features - I'm fully aware of what they are. I want to know if I presented them well - is it well lit? Is it sharp enough to satisfy people around here? Could I have done it any better? I know what i'm trying to represent, and I want to know if I did it successfully. A simple two words telling me what they think about her does nothing to help me with that. If it were a horrific photo, she'd still have nice ones.

And IF they're only compelled to make comments about the subject and ignore the photo, I'd hope they would have a bit tact than the comment in question. I believe your assessment of the photo is correct - but i still don't care if someone thinks she has nice tits. I appreciate your input either way. :)

Forgive me for being skeptical about some of this, but I believe that if a photographer only cares about lighting, exposure, etc..., then it is unlikely that s/he will choose a model whose physical beauty is so exceptional. You can take just as perfect a photo with what Fotomann describes as an "untraditional model." I have seen several such photos and none of them score well. Now, there are many wonderful nudes out there with beautiful models where my reaction would be more in line with what some of you are saying. I have and usually do comment on those kinds of nudes in the more socially tasteful way that some of the commenters here are asking for. However, my point here is that this photo is not such a shot. This photo, in my opinion, is the kind of thing that college age men hang on their walls as a poster. So it evokes exactly the response given by Hughie.

Nice photo. Well done photographically. But there is another aspect to this that we seem to want to deny.

I appreciate the point you're trying to make...and IF it were a tit-judging contest, then yes - that would be an apt comment (and yes...they ARE :)). however, in a photography competition I'm more interested in how they're presented photographically than I am in how they're formed structurally.

Frankly I'm not that concerned with how anyone feels about her glandular appointment.
02/11/2007 01:59:30 PM
I thought this was a competition, with like real comments from real photographers. i like the composition. The lighting is good but the hands may be a bit bright. A little distracting. But a good photo of form and lighting even though. As far as the t... go well bring yourselves out of the dark and give some real critiques.

Pedro, I'm going to have to be the odd man out here. I love your photography a lot because you capture so much emotion and personality in the people you photograph. This one to me, while technically fantastic, looked like an appeal to Joe Six-Pack.

I mean, the lighting, colors, etc are fantastic. Technically you couldn't have done a better job. But to me it doesn't come close to having the soul or artistic feel your shots usually have. This looks like a shot for the Maxim or a men's calendar or something like that. I hate to be the lonely voice that wasn't thrilled with the photo, but I figured I'd give you my opinion anyway.

I like the lighting, pose with the windblown hair is fun. Something sexy about a lady in a cowboy hat and jeans.. its simple, down home kinda sexy. Of course the body is tight and firm and the shadows / highlights play beautifully off that.

classic glamour shot, like the hat and the wind in her hair. irregular border is very distracting.

I love the lighting and the color of the back drop. Perfect choices for the models hair & skin color. Plus, she's stunning so that seems to help too.
;-). This is a 10 for me.

The body of the model is very good. (this is what my artistic mind says).

(And you know what my pervert mind would say).

When a master photographer shoots a phenomenal body, the results are impressive indeed. The blue is as good as yours!

the lighting is impeccable as wells as focus and composition. However for a nude challenge she sure has quite abit of clothes on :P. In all seriousness, it is a really good study in the human form, I hope this does well for you.

more cheese cake than traditional nude study has that buy me feel about it just a little uncomfortable with this, others would disagree,It rates high with me on the technical ability side with good lighting and composition 8

awesome, maybe a ribbon... only thing I'm not so sure about is the white border so far down from the top, I see you wanted it evenly spaced with the bottom, but it comes too close on her hat, great colors, comp., model, pose, lighting, etc though, 10

This has commercial appeal. I can see this in a men's magazine. Nice lighting. I like the movement of her hair.

Very nice shot, one of my favs in the challenge. Love the lighting and the wind blown hair adds some action to the pose. Good luck!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I think the bright white on the border is a major distraction but the lighting and rich colours of the photo make up for it in terms of score. 9
