Nice T.....ires.

I sacked a maid once....I don't think that's what you mean though.

Okay...that's all I've got- although I bet if I worked on it I could come up with some kind of "in the bush" reference.

I like the image overall, but the red (tool chest?) draws my eye away [clearly I have been married a while]. I think you could've sold the "sacking the maid" thing a bit more with a cleaning bucket or maybe a feather duster.

This picture doesn't really make a lot of sense. I just dont get anything out of it. I get what you were going for, but I guess the execution isnt there. Its not easy to say that to such an accomplished photographer, but, just my honest thoughts.

Interesting choice of verb. The tires overwhelm this picture and keep drawing the eye.

... because you figured that it'd give a fantastic location for a shoot lol! Nice one Judi!

I like the concept of putting models in a industrial environment. It gives a tension between the softness and fragility of the model and the harchness of the environment. A few comments:
There are too many objects included in the picture that distract attention from the model.
The photo is a bit tilted and suffers from distortions on the sides. I guess you didn't have enough room to back up and use a little less wide angle?
The colors work, I like the match between the color of her hair and the red objects. On the other hand, I wonder how the picture would look like in B&W.
Beautiful model, no comments here ;-)

Talk about a contrast of subjects! Good choice to use such a pretty model in a ghastly place, makes for good art, my advice for this shot would be for the model (Judi)? ? to use the window somehow, maybe you could peer outside, and crop the left side of the frame...of course my opinion..7

Look at those TIRES! Nice set!

That would be Judi if I am not mistaken, awesome figure and location, not crazy about the "hdr" look though, but that's of course just my personal taste.

I don't like this at all, I am sorry. It's nothing to do with the nudity, just the photograph as a whole, it doesn't seem to work.

Beautiful model, a comical title, but for me, the composition would be improved if the crop was tighter on the left... my eye, (prob because I am a woman lol) gets distracted by the window, the lack of definition in the sky and the bright red object in the bottom left corner. I love the way the light and the pping enhances her lovely red hair.

Can I please come clean your house?

Nice HDR, stuff to the left makes this feel a little to busy, and where the model is sitting and facing is kind of out of balance.
Turning the model to the right facing the tires and cropping so the stuff on the left is not there.

Nice tones!

Not sure you'd get a maid to help with this anyway. Try Dial-A-Hubby, I'm sure if you sent them a photo of the mess, they'd come a runnin' ;)

Once I was blind, but now I see... You're like the cure to red color blindness. :)

I can't stop staring at your big............tires!

it's probably my monitor, but the red drum and the red tool cabinet (?) in the lower left are highly distracting. Other than those it's a great shot.

I am probably reading too much into the title. ;-)
