This shot reminded me a lot of the scene from the movie Swordfish where Hale Berry was sitting topless on the deck reading a magazine :-)

Overall, I thought it was well done, but wasn't fond of the B&W treatment. Still a nice finish and a lovely model :-)

Wow... I love the subject matter, very umm, bold. I would be shocked if it went over well here though. But it went over quite well with me. The flooring is a perfect background for the chair, and the posing is quite perfect. I Might have lost the shoes, but it does add a touch of fun that I might miss without it. Again, good luck.

I like this. I like the pose, chair, and the magazines; the only thing that is off is the color it seems to be a bit blue. Good Luck 8

I like this... It has a very "contemporary" feel to it (for lack of a better expression).

I know this probably shouldn't be what I like the most but hey! The flooring is great in this shot!! lol I really like it. Nice position of the chair in the frame and the pose is good. The only thing I don't like are the shoes. I'd prefer this to have a more relaxed feel but with the shoes it doesn't quite work (Just my humble opinion)

Well composed and interesting concept, but lighting is a bit flat. Her black hair blends in with the black chair, and the whole scene just feels under-lit.

Nice angle, like the duotone

This would be nicer if the model had her legs crossed in a more feminine position.
 01/29/2007 08:09:23 PM
I like the angle... well done!

I like the composition here. Very nicely done. I guess because you can't see the face the image looses some punch.

lovely setting, but I do miss her face a little bit. blue tones work very well, makes the image a bit cold and that works with her face not visible.

I do miss a bit of real focus, not sure how to explain this.

I like the carefree attitude of this image. Most images in the challenges are kinda delicate and feminine. This certainly has a totally refreshing feel. Great composition

Excellent range of tones, and I love the bluish/silver tint. The focus is perfect and I like the composition along the diagonal. Good balance between the magazine she is holding and the little stand in the upper left.

Well balanced & proportioned, tactful, good exposure... I liked this even as a small thumbnail!
