    Default Silhouette (almost nude)

    Since it only seems fair to post some of my own stuff if I'm offering critiques of others', here's some of my recent work. The symmetry is a bit off -- I think having the hand on the left thigh a little lower and the chin a little to the left would even it all out. Other thoughts?

    I like this shot, the treatment and its graphic quality. I might have left some room for her hair....aside from that very nicely done!

    Very striking image. I like the hands as is and agree her hair on the floor would have been quite dramatic but it's nice as is.

    I like it too. Nice tones and lighting. Like Marko said a bit more hair would be nice.

    I'll agree with the hair as well. As far as the symmetry is concerned, that is just splitting hairs for me. Shots like this with such an amazing usage of light and shadow just grab me everytime. Not mention the talent of getting nude women to get into almost any position you ask them to!!
    I know I don't have that talent!!

    It's a really well made and very elegant work. Except for the bottom crop. It almost seems that the browser kept the image from loading completely.

    For the hair, I cropped there since any lower and it's off the bottom of the background and into what the model is laying on. I need to get some white plexiglass so I can put the model on that for these setups and have a lot more room to frame at the bottom.

    Beautiful shot! I agree with the hair also. I bet she was telling you to hurry up and take that shot so she could put her legs down

    I really like it
