Bummer about the hands, because the rest of it is wonderful.

You CLONED in the hands???!!!!??!?! WOOOOOOW You can't even begin to understand how impressed i am by that. WOW!

The photo is just beautifull, sensual romatic, all in one. Love it.

Again, I thank you guys for the great comments. Yes, i have only entered twice and I have done okay. My dissapointment with the site is not so much with my placement but rather with the placement of other photos. It seems that too many of the same ideas get voted highly. I hate to generalize b/c there have been some truly great winners. I just get tired of seeing some fantastic photographs get low votes b/c the subject is not a flower, sunset, or lightning. Again, I do appreciate all the great comments. Perhaps all I need is a break from photo review sites. I will return when my spirits and perspective are out of the slums. Thank you.

Comment by zeuszen:
Actually, I like the model's hands.
The incidental emphasis (on them) you, apparently, would have preferred to avoid, speaks to me more profoundly and delicately than the more obvious sensuality of the larger part of the image.

To have both, IMHO, expands the emotional range of the photo.

Absolutely wonderful; I think you use of light is fantastic, plus, the subject could't be any better really.

Done with this site? You've only entered two challenges, placed in the top 5% on both, and you're unhappy? Placement is a consensus of several hundred opinions, not just a panel of photography judges. You should be proud! :-)

Thank you all for your comments. DrJones, honestly your comment is a great compliment considering your work. I have to say that i am done with this site. The photos that continue to place high are just so. . . too long to explain. It's been fun. Again, thank you all for the great comments.

Okay so we scored it right after all! It really is a great shot. The whole shot can be looked at and taken apart piece by piece even though thats not what your supposed to do! The imagination runs wild wondering what she looks like. the curves and tones and sharp focus are great. Really really nice work. could have placed top 10 easy.

I think I've seen an image like this before. Where did you post it?
