Beautiful image, intimate and full of curves, contrast and texture...the shapes are beautiful and the lighting is beautiful; i like your choice of black and white; I -do- notice a slight halo around the thumb- i'm not sure if its from dodging and burning or due to the background? I waver between a 9 and 10 for this image, for now i'm on 10 :)

this is beautiful and it brings to mind the 'hell freezing over' phrase (you know when people always say 'when hell freezes over' - everything is red except what looks like a white blanket on the ground of 'frozen' ice-like color.... ;) great negative! :)

I love this image - its just great- the lipstick draws your eyes right to the teeth and tongue, and the expression is -great- artistically done- i like the tonal range you chose for this just a little darker than high-key in the background, and the skin-tones remain natural and real) -- another one that I gave a 10 to because overall it's a great image :)

the human stain

Comment:
beautiful composition, I had a similar idea (but thought about it with feet standing in the center) when i was in boston the other day and decided against it; - now I wish I hadn't; its a very well laid out composition, almost looking like the bursting of sun-rays from the hand- and or as if the stain itself is radiating from the hand... ~10~

Very creative- I like how it is 'abstract' yet- 'not abstract' (still know what the subject is) it almost looks painted, very creative!

vert creatuvem the feathers and paint are lovely, and turn the eye into a piece of art in and of itself; I love the graceful curves of darkness around the paler skin- and overall I find this piece one of my higher/ top 10 choices (~~10~~) I hope you do well in this challenge- nice imagry!

The Mentor
by SandyP

Comment:
this is a -beautful capture- of hands, young and old alike- as well as capturing an intimate moment between a 'student and mentor' the grasp on the balll is a strong one-and the gentle fingers of the other hand seeming to either lift, or give the ball-just speak of the whole overall 'moment' the black background makes the iamge pop beautifully and the textures and tones are amazing! :) I -adore- this pic ~~~10~~~
