 I've had a few pictures of Holly in challenges recently. They've done pretty well.

I haven't avoided the votes of 1 though, even though her modesty has been preserved in every shot - as it is here.

It's amusing really, nude images of the same model have been displayed at one of the world's major art galleries, but some voters here at DPC feel I'm committing some form of moral outrage.

I had actually submitted a different (non-nude) image but at the last minute decided I shouldn't and went with this one.

I hope it will do fine and I must acknowledge that there are probably as many people who vote nudes up as those who vote them down.

Beautiful Softness. All is else is unimportant- lost in the softness.

I love this shot for the tonality, texture contrasts, and color. Sadly, the crop disappoints my eye because I feel a missing impact which could be amplified by framing more precisely - one that relates the lines and shapes intimately with the frame. I see a square crop with the upper and lower edges as they are. The right edge needs to be moved in touching the right of the lavender shape in the upper right corner. The left edge is more flexible but I vote for a square crop with the other three edges fixed. Try it please. Maybe you were going for a rule of thirds comp but there are more things at work in something as well considered as this sensuous creation. Lest you have any doubt, I'm giving this an 8 because it's the best in the challenge, although it could have been a 10.

You are certainly getting your monies worth out of this lovely model. Another good one that should do well here.
