I hope you don't mind, I've saved your image as my wallpaper on my computer. Its such an inspiring image... all of the shots behind you, and then the addition of you so artfully presented. Its my favourite of the entire challenge!! Well done! Thanks for the creativity and a warm welcome back :)

Nick, welcome back! I hope you stick around for a while longer. Couldn't resist another nude self-port could you?

One of my favorites. I'll be interested to read the backstory. I suspect I would have scored this higher had the model been BW. 7

Clever and very well executed. Only nitpick I have is that I don't see how the towel relates to all this, but then again, does it have to? Probably not. /7

Time and effort a plus, I like the lighting and the comp, the background adds a nice touch as well.

awesome, this looks like some kind of album cover for a metal or rock CD.

Interesting use of light. Shadows and highlights on the body.

Nicely done... I really have to calibrated my monitor but to me some of the lighting, whilst not extreme... is a little overblown... I appreciate the time and effort put into this

Nice, that chin looks like it belongs to Nick? If it is, not as strong as your Nude III winner but a nice shot, one of the better ones in the challenge.

very arty. Works fo me.

This is quite creative. Your setup is very dramatic and I like the way the model is using his hands. The white drape ads interest. Nicely done.

To tell the truth, the last thing I expected on voting a nude challenge is picking a photo of a half naked male as my favorite, and yet. This image goes beyond nude ( a crass word in this case) beyond art, to a story that a thousand words are just the prologue.

I like that the hands are unusually bright. It helps to emphasize, bring attention to, the aperture concept.

Nic, this is nice. Levitation seems to be your specialty. Good Luck!

fantastic image - love the background, the pose, the centered comp

Intriguingly unique! the collage is powerful, but there's just no way to NOT keep coming back to the central figure
