It is a very nice portrait. The raunchy-ness is minimal, much more of a fun photo. The DPC'ers didn't appreciate just how good an idea this was. Well done. |

Forgot to mention before how much this reminds me of this song/video. Anyway, glad you got over a 5 in the end! |

Haha - you're right, it will haunt your portfolio. ;-) But for the coin slot and it's implications, it's a great portrait and you're a gorgeous model. Don't fret about it. :) |

I think you forgot a dollar sign and at least a few zero's. Great idea and photo! |

Hmm, out of all the entries I probably found this one the hardest to mark. I gave it a 5 in the end but almost gave it a 6 (I think a 5.5 would be about right), although that's a 5 meaning average, not a 5 meaning bad, as is the case with some voters.
The portrait itself is decent I think, although the bright spot from the lighting as well as the messy hair on your right shoulder I find a little distracting. The purple fringing in the eyes is also unfortunate and easy to fix in advanced editing. I guess being picky I'd have probably give a slightly tighter crop to the left of the frame also, but this is a more subjective preference.
In terms of fulfilling the challenge I think the picture does an alright job. I'm guessing you're going for a double interpretation of the challenge with the shot going down your top, although I don't think I'd have made the connection between cleavage and coin slot without having read the discussion on this challenge first.
As for the painted-on coin slot I think I'd have scored a lot higher if it were more realistic, appearing as though you could actually put a coin in there, perhaps a stuck on metal plate or similar would have worked well to that effect as opposed to only using body paint. A final very minor point is how your tops strap slightly covers the cent symbol, I think the image would be better with the slot (and markings) completely unobstructed or if they're going to be obstructed, obstructed to a larger degree so the slot itself is more subtle in the photo - also on the same area the two bright pixels on the strap (I don't know if they're artefacts or were in the original image) are a little distracting.
Anyway, hope this is helpful to you and not just mean/picky =). |
