don't think Ben has done artistic nude but this has the slow shutter and blur that he'd likely use if he did.

unfortunately what could be a sexy shot is killed by the initial impression that she is preparing to urinate.

Nice seascape (!). Ben should be so lucky to have access to a model such as this.

Comment by bergiekat:
The drape seen through the model's legs is not appealing. (Reminds me of toilet paper!) I do like the black and white for this shot. It pulls the textures.

I am not making fun, but my first impression was that she had to urinate...I don't see the distance aspect...

Comment by HawkinsT:
Hmm, I feel entering this in a challenge entitled "from a distance" is a little dubious, since the focus is on the women near by, however I do really love the photo! Based on photographic merit alone this is by far my favourite image in the competition. I guess this does just about fit the rules though so I've still given it an 8, which is my joint highest score. Perhaps if I didn't like the image so much I'd have been less flexible.

Love the texture of the skin, looks like porcelain. Although the pose is a little unpleasant for me, maybe that pose without the dress could looks to me nicer. Is that sunlight?

Interesting image and the light on skin is lovely. I am not sure it is well suited for the challenge, but with a nice, well processed image I am not too much of a stickler for rules.
