Finally I find one I like! Nice work, the thumb going into the netting was a good idea the red fingernails are a good contrast to the rest of the photo. Maybe without the tattoo it would have been more effective, but you didn't have much a of choice right :) Unless you maybe had the hand covering the tattoo, it could have worked.
I think the jewelry and the tattoo are unfortunate - hard to shoot around the tatt in this shot though. it's a beautiful image, I love it - wonder why the arms have less grain than the body - good luck in the challenge 9
Very sexy and nicely done, without being raunchy. I love the use of grain here!! I find it difficult to tell that the woman is wearing diamonds. I love the desat with just the reds of her nails and the tattoo left in color. I also like the extremely contrasty lighting. Overall a very interesting picture. My one comment might be that it bothers me that the hand on the left side of the picture is coming from nowhere seemingly... it would have been nice to be able to tell it's connected to her body. Fun image though! - 9 - Good luck.
Interesting. I'd never have thought to use selective grain. VERY artsy. I think I'd remove the rings and only have the red on the tattoo, but still a fine choice for the challenge.
Very interesting. Selective desat and selective grain makes for a very cool shot. I'm sure this wasn't easy processing. Generally speaking, I like it. On the nit picky side, I feel the tones on the two hands and on the arm are a little ghost like.
