I have a 15 year old daughter and I tell her that 'Healthy' ..achieved by eatting right, exercise and inner peace will always be beautiful..not fitting any standards of the media or fashion world.
After all, if we are in prime physical condition then we feel beautiful and project this..and thus we are!
An honest and creative image.

Hi Jo.
Interesting fighting pic.
I would have given it seven.
I think the limit of the pic is in the violence of your comment, the same violence who let you lose a bit of control while composing it, ending up missing the remaining three points required to get a ten.
Next time channel your anger and try to change part of it in a positive feeling.

this image and detail of opinion is awesome ... i took agree and am in a similar situation .. great job! if i voted i'd give it a nine ... i'd like to see more colors though ... maybe on the papers ...
the body shop cosmetic stores www.thebodyshop.com use to have a poster and slogan with an over sized (more realistic babrbie doll) on a chassie and the logo was "there are only 8 people in the world that are supermodels" or something like that ... showing that being curvier isnt a bad thing :) |

just to add a comment: the sad truth is that if the model had been more 'what society considers of great beauty', this picture would probably have scored better. i think that adds to your overall message. |

I read your details. Just wanted to let you know. And I am also surprised this didn't score better. |

I can't believe this one scored as low as it did. I think it's great & well thought out. |

Too true. If only people accepted themselves for who they are instead of letting fashion dictate their life and how they feel about themselves. |

I was a little weary of this photo at first from the thumbnail, but seeing the actual picture, I really like it. I like your creative approach to this challenge. Good job! |

An image that really made me stop and look. I am not sure I like the image for itself - I don't know that it works well outside of the challenge - but certainly an interesting concept. |

I like this one! Great model! Like the different fonts. IMHO, I would have used more colors (in the fonts) to make this image pop out even more or having fashion magazine covers taped to her. =-p . Not especially fond of seeing the backdrop, it somewhat distracts. The position of the arms makes me feel like she is surrendering to the "trends" or throwing her arms up in protest, I'm not sure which. Perhaps seeing her hands or having a different look in her eye would reveal a bit more of her statement. Would also like to have seen what it said on her right shoulder. =-) Still, a great job and one of my favs in the challenge. |

I like this pic - well thought-out, very artistic. My only slight gripe (and one I guess several others as pedantic as myself will point out) is that you spelt 'tae-bo' wrong. But regardless, good work. |

I love the message involved witht his image! Would have been beneficial to move the woman farther away from the black background and then lit only her. I think this would have increased the effectiveness of the photo. |
