Took this during my first nude shoot. This turned out to be my favorite shot ever, and it was one of my last of 2004. Monda was excellent to work with and look forward to our next shoot.

The loghting is supurb, the model is lovely and in a great pose. The composition is good but the crop of her elbows and hand just don't sit right for me. Nice work and bumping up slightly.
Love the angle...but i think its a little too soft on her side...perhaps the slightest big overexposed as well. Beautiful girl, angle, and lighting though.
Very good image, soft tones, great light and a good pose. My one little nit pick is I think the angle of her face is a little steep, meaning it compresses her mouth, nose and eyes just a bit too much, but that's really very small.
Beautiful lighting and soft focus. I like the pose as a whole - but it makes her face look a little strange, and that weird facial expression is the only thing standing between you and a ten from me. As it is, an eight is still nothing to be ashamed of :P.
I think that is a nice portrait, but the lighting is a bit even, a lack of shadows to give dimension. The way the body stands out from the dark background is good, but at the head it becomes busy in the background and that distracts a bit.
