| Congrats! I knew yours would do well. I think it might have hurt mine to have two so similar. The viewer can't help but compare the two, and yours wins hands down. Now stop stealing my ideas *wink* |

| This is a great shot. I love the atmosphere and composition of the picture, especially the lighting and use of B&W. It is also the subtlest use of pencils I've seen thus far. I cannot provide useful comment on the general photography; it has no faults as far as I can see. Other pictures have used a similar idea, but I don't think that should affect my originality vote; this shot has class and deserves to score highâ€Â¦ (10) |

Lovely shot. I can feel the softness of her back - the light on it is beautiful. I think it would be nice to have just a little side light on her face, to separate the skin of her face from her hair.

Composition - very good
Technical Aspects - very good
Meets Challenge - yes
Visual Impact / Originality – high/ quite good
Other suggestions – I wonder if a light sepia would have set this off better? I still like it.

| Very elegant looking. I almost think cropping it just above the towel(?) would have been effective too, with more space at the top. karmat |

| This is certainly a nice shot, but something doesn't seem right to me. It may be that the lack of contrast between the subject and the background makes it seem kind of flat. |

| Beautiful. It's a shame there's another one so similar :). The duotone is beautiful and soft, and well exposed. 10 from me - lisae |

| beautiful image :) The soft lighting and overall softness of this image is working well in this 'portrait'. The angle of the lighting does a nice job of highlighting the muscule structure... great shot! = 10 - jmsetzler |

| This is very beautiful. The lighting is just right and her skin is very very smoothe which creates a pleasing subject to look at. I think it may be more sensual if she were wearing some kind of soft cloth such as sick or rayon instead of what looks like a towel. Yup, I see pencils! I could hang this in my livingroom. Great photo. Good luck in the challenge. |

| very nicely done. Good soft focus/ finishing, love the blue tone, very subtle. Interesting pose, certainly the best out of the 'pencils in the hair' shots. Perhaps the shadow on her back is a bit too strong and could have been softened a bit with some fill light ? |

| If she had moved a few steps away from the wall, you probably could have avoidied the shadow, but I don't know what your lighting source was, so that may or may not have been possible. I like the composition and the lighting, but not so sure about that earring... |

| What a beautiful shot! The lighting is just perfect and I think that b&w was a good choice. The contrast is great too. Good job! :) -KrazyKat |

| Lovely picture ! I wonder whether it would gain by being cropped a bit more ... not sure. It's probably best as it is. |
