Seems to be too neat-image-y for my taste, nicely lit, nicely composed.

The skin is has a little too much "satin" for my tastes.

Comment by jbsmithana:
Some may not like the over softening likely caused by overuse of noise reduction but I think it fits this shot. Very sensual.

Comment by K3Master:
Gratuitously over-processed in my opinion. There's very little need to over-smooth skin in a photo of this nature, especially when it begins to affect the textures of other objects. The texture of the scarf when juxtaposed with the texture of the skin, if left with a more natural feel, could have really pushed this photo. As it is, it feels unnatural and forced.

I keep looking at this and trying to figure it out, in comparison (which we do, like it or not) to the other shots in the challenge you have lost me...you have the macro of this but the B&W of it makes it dull IMO....sorry

Different than most. Good shot and a unique subject.

I love the clouds. It would have been nice to have a bit wider crop to get more of them in the shot, but I still really like the mill and the good contrast.
