Okay, I think I _will_ continue then. :-) Thank you Zos!

Thanks, Ann. By marketable do you mean the work itself somehow, or the
process? I have in mind getting into boudoir photography and am
considering how to go about marketing myself. Seems doable ...

I hear you Derby, but the deep shadow was also an intentional act. I
find it's slimming to a fuller figure to allow the edges to fall away
into darkness. And I was exploring a chiaroscuro effect because ...
well just because. :-)  Thank you, Derby.

Stan, you could have a point re the tinted hair colour: perhaps it
clashes with the red. I will probably monochrome a different shot in
this Art Nude group and then the colour would be moot. But as it was a
non-paid collab trade shoot, that's her hair, and that's what I had to
work with. Thanks!


And thank you Jack, Attila, Steve, Bob, and the friendly lurkers who
wrote me offline, as well as everyone else who took a look. Much
appreciated!
