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


Ann Sanfedele:

 that one is very nice - good light, she looks comfortable - tastefully
 done even if not safe for work :-)
 And marketable, to be sure

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 ...


Derby Chang:

 I like this classic pose. I would have liked the shot taken slightly
 to the left, to make her profile more tonally separated from the dark wall.
 This is a good series

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 Halpin:

 Nice. But I have one minor quibble - the purple coloration in the hair
 is distracting for me. It draws my attention and makes me wonder whether
 this is intentional or an artifact? The actual color of her hair or a 
 by-product
 of the set-up? I am pretty sure I know the answers, but still find it a 
 distraction...

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!

I really like that. For obvious reasons, and perhaps not so obvious reasons.

pretty easy to figure out her natural hair colour, Stan.

Thanks Bob!

Actually, I since went and looked at couple of Bruce's earlier shots and 
verified that the purple is her natural hair. In those shots it didn't stand 
out in the same way. I presume that she likes her hair with the purple ends, 
and so highlighting it in this shot would please her. But this viewer sees it 
as a distracting element.
