Hmm I agree with Art. I think you've done such beautiful work, and ofcourse I don't know why you chose this one, but I do know you can do a lot better :) |

I agree with the fact that the pose looks a little stiff (although that's probably not something I would have thought on my own). But I am inclined to like the pose. Her beauty is not flaunted but instead displayed with grace, and a lot of times that just increases the beauty for me. (I hope the oxymoron of graceful stiffness makes sense. It's like her body may be a tad stiff but the way she chooses to show herself to the world is graceful.)
edit: And I also agree that the shadow is somewhat odd BUT I think it's much better this way than it would have been if she had been "floating" on a perfectly white background with no shadow at all. (Edit edit: oh, someone already said that! So I agree with that comment!)

| Interesting pose and shot. Very well lit. It doesn't really have a 'wow' factor for me (excluding the obvious naked woman). What I mean is, there's nothing that really draws me into the image, and makes me linger there for longer than a moment. Still, overall, it's a good photo and I'm sure it will be a crowd pleaser. |

| nice enough, but the shadow really takes away from the image. the pose seems a bit unconfortable, and you might have healed out the wrinkles above her elbow. on the other hand, i imagine this image will get more views than any other image in the challenge ;-) |

| Beautiful subject and excellent lighting, the pose and expression seem a little stiff. I'd love to see the Same setup with a more fluid pose, body language, and expression through the eyes to draw the viewer in. |

Very tastefully done and the lighting is superb!
My first thought was to say oops on the background shadow, but it is an essential part to keep the model from looking like she is floating.
Well done! |

| This would have worked a lot better for me if the background is dark. |

| Very attractive model, I like the lighting and pose. Her facial expression implies she is not at ease. Clarity is very good and I like the desat. Good marks over all. |

Best: Middle skin tones
Worst: The shadow is really funky. The comp is a bit off. Center comp is perfectly fine, but because of pose and shadow, it feels wrong in this case.. |
