Thanks for commenting, Frank. Interesting how this image is polarizing opinion fairly strongly. I posted that rope shot just now; title Sinews. And thank you Ann, Jack, Igor and Paul. Appreciate the feedback! On Mon, Jan 4, 2016 at 10:44 PM, knarf wrote: > This just

This just doesn't feel like it's coming together for me. Can't really say why, it's just not cohesive, not flowing, something's just not right to my eye. Unlike Ann, this is my least favorite of your shots of Rachel posted on Flickr. The other photos of her, on the other hand, are spectacular.

I like this the best of the ones of Rachel that I see on your page - I didn't like the glossiness of her skin in the one where her expression is strong and the other straight on one is not as interesting.. I'd have liked her front leg to have been less tight - but that's just me being fussy

Bruce, For the record: I am not expecting all body parts to fit into the photo. I guess it is a strange combination of two limbs almost parallel to each other that created this wierd perception.. Or maybe something else... So, in short, - it is not that there are "intersections", but rather

Bruce, It is nice that it is in B: one cannot see the blood dripping from where the limbs were sawed off. :-) On a serious note, - I enjoy the facial expression in combination with the upper body and how it was captured (light, etc.). The well-lit "front" leg is the main distraction for me
