I like the light, light balance and B&W tone here. The subject placement is a bit straight on and in the middle. 8


She was leaning on a table in front of her, but it was hard to do that anyways without the right shoes. We also tried it upside down, but it didn't look so good, there was not so much tension there.

I loved this image because of the would be possibilities. So many feelings and yearnings are very aptly expressed to make the viewer think, wonder and smile. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

I love the way the light plays down the legs and onto the feet. Great pic. It was one of the first here to really catch my eye.

Great take on a classic pose. Very cool shot - the lighting is a bit harsh, but otherwise very nice job.

Good job on lighting from both sides. Black background looks very nice, but maybe a slightly textured background would have looked good, too.

really nice. good composition and symmetry, good subject because it is a little unusual due to the position of the feet. very good entry.

Outch, that can´t be comfortable. I like the composition but other than that nothing that really blows my mind, still better than most shots here. 6 from me.

I'm going to rate this very highly. The lighting on the legs and feet makes a strong form, and the contrast and black background creates a very powerful and sensual shape. I guess she was dangling from the back of a couple of chairs or something? That's how I would have done it. Which brings me to the 1 point I'll be marking down. The magical effect of the leading foot floating with the flip flop supporting all the weight could have been followed through to the back foot as well. Excellent photo, 9.
