And they say that the camera adds 10 pounds. The background is distracting, and the lighting is a bit harsh. I realize that this was entered in jest, but I think that you could have produced a ribbon contender with this model if you'd tried. For example, a view of the curved spine and into the rib cage could have produced some interesting results if well lit.
Points for humor...and the rose. Very funny. If the background was solid I would have scored it higher as I found it to be distracting, but then again like the leaves....hmmm
I can not help but look at this shot and feel mildly insulted for myself and others that actually had the courage to enter a nude shot into this challenge. Most of us are not glamour or nude photographers and it took a lot of effort to put in a serious shot. In any other challenge I would consider this thinking outside the box. In this challenge I see it as a slap in the face. Just MHO.

What is with the full frontal nudity here? Maybe a hair light and a light give the eye sockets some sparkle would have made your subject more lively looking.
Well, I guess this is as nude as one can get... The lighting is a bit harsh (some of the highlights are blown), and the background is a bit distracting (would have been less visually confusing with a solid color). The pose is nice, very natural, and the addition of the flower really 'makes' the photo! The red spot is a wee bit distracting, but I like the lighthearted approach to the challenge. 7.
lol. Nice flower. It looks like a pillow would help the pose a little and relieve some pressure on the neck. The shadows I find a little distracting. Good luck!
ROFL! I like yoru sence of humor! you have quite a few hot spots on its bones, and i'm not sure what the red spots are... The shadows are a touch distracting, Try using somethign to soften the shadows such as a peice of white paper, or a light peice of white cloth. 5
i think you might have gotten to this model just a little late...
some crushed black velvet would have been more effective than what looks like a teatowel.
a plain cloth underneath would have been better imo i think the striped black white with leaves distracts from the skeleton. But i guess the bigger issue is that your shot depicts a skeleton rather than live human body.
