This is cool. The thumbnail made me think it was a sea scape and low and behold, look what it is!! Artfully done. Should have been in the Nude challenge.
Beautiful portrayal of a daring subject matter. The black on white and blue works well. This one deserved a 10, not a 4 -- but America's "Red States" may not yet be ready for this type of image. Don't let this stop you. This is one of my all-time favorite images and would love to see more DPC photographers take risks like this.
returning for comments:
Ah, the pudenda glorified ! very difficult to find the implied lines, but such a lovely entry should not be held too liable to be literal in the interpretation of the challenge. Bumping up to 7 on artistic merit.
The palid flesh tones here make me a feel a bit unwell and for me this is a bit unpalatable to look at. The lines are perhaps implied but also very literal so overall this doesn't do it for me. Focus is too soft and background is a bit messy for a shot like this too.
At least it's in focus! Three zones of the photo add interest to the comp. Blue is a bit harsh. Sorry but for me, I guess I'm just not resonating with the subject.
I'm sure you're getting a ton of comments on this shot. I just wanted to say you have a pretty brave model. (unless it's you, then *you're* brave, heh). A good implied line, of a sort, but a technically weak photo, with blown highlights and, to me, too soft a focus.
