Not much to say about this one, I think b&w photography is particular nice when you can envoke an elegant lust. So I went after the photo, and this is what I got. I hope somebody likes it.

Wow, tough crowd! The darkness doesn't bother me, but eliminating the bra lines (this photo's only distraction) would improve it. Still, I believe this one deserved a much higher score.
This could have been a good photo but it is very dark, looking at the histogram there are no pixel higher then 150. It is also much smaller then it could be. I might also be a good idea to give your model just a bit more time without the bra so that the lines from it are not so visible. I do like the play of light and shadow.
It´s just way too dark for my taste, 90% of the image is pretty much pitch black and only a small fraction of herright legis lit. If you are making it dark to not put anything on display you should perhaps tried a technique callend "painting with light" to give you more control over what parts are dark and what parts are bright. If you are unfamiliar with this technique, send me PM after the challenge is over and I will gladly assist you.
Very intriguing photo and well composed. It took me a whil 'till I figured that the center part isn't a shadow but a towel (very nicely done). The only thing that bugs me are the stripes from underware, if shot only 5min later this would have been perfect...
I just recalibrated my monitor to see if that was the culprit. Nope. This is too dark fro me to see anything but three amorphous shapes. Fine abstract though.
A bit too dark. I think if it was not soo dark the shadows would be very effective. Also, the horizontal placement of subject is probably not the most interesting composition!! But, good idea.
I like the dark tones and the negative space at the bottom. I am less sure of the crop you chose at the right. Personally, I think the head would have been good here, or at least the neck. More significantly however, the subject has lines from their clothes that are distracting to the tones and texture of the skin. Your model needs to avoid tight fitting underwear the day of the shoot.
Good shade and framing. Butit's just way to dark for me. Not sure I understand the title either (but that doesn't really count.) If lightened, yo might need to reduce contrast slightly to keep the far leg in the "gray zone". Did you have your computer screen turned up high brightness in low light perhaps? it's so easy to do with black and white images. What a shame. 6.
