6. A bit plain for my taste. Nothing in the pic is truly holding my attention. I look to the lips, but no smile or expression. I look to the shoulder but it's rather flat and plain. Overall just a bit too simple for me.

Looks like this image is about textures. Nice lighting and great composition. I like the subtle interplay of shadows/light. The rich black of the background really help to bring out the glow of her skin I also like the way you took just a part of the body and used it to make an interesting composition. A very suggestive image. Well done. 9

A very unusual, but effective portrait. I'm wanting more though - seems like you are just teasing me.

Like the scent of a woman. very good diagonal comp with bare shoulders and waiting lips with eyes (not shown) looking lovingly down. Bumping up

I really thought I would like this alot, from the thumbnail, but I find the photo lacks a littl in full size. I guess I was expecting to see more texture in her skin, like goosebumps on her shoulder and neck. Still very nice composition and excellent lighting.

This one would have worked for the "parts" challenge too. I like the black and white. The cropping really doesn't do it for me. I would have prefered a closer crop of maybe the shoulder and fabric. Also softening the shadows in the clavical area might have been better.

nicely done, something like what I would have in mind for the "parts" challenge and now "distinguishing features" but don't have the knowledge or model to do this well.

Great shot!! The tones in the skin are perfect, very good use of light!! The exposure is brilliant too, can feel the texture in her white top. Good idea not to show her whole face, leaves us thinking about her face more... 9
