Very nice indeed. Love the lighting -- the clear-cutting must have taken forever. It's perfect.
To my mind, she should be essentially ignoring the snake and apple (as shot.) This portraits perfect comfort and control (high esteem) in a context where the viewer may not be so comfortable at all. I like it.
Is it a real snake by the way. If so, what a poser! :P
I'm a little unsure about this shot, to say the least. At first I thought you'd captured lust and desire, since this shot appears to be based on temptation and taking, rather than giving. Plus, if I'm not mistaken, Eve rather betrayed Adam with the whole apple thing? - the snake and the apple do rather appear to point out the wicked/selfish side of things.
...HOWEVER, if she's ignoring the snake and the apple (and she does rather seem to be concentrating on flirting with the camera with her eyes, lips and shoulders) then that could be a good case for romance.
She's also hiding herself with her arms, which denotes playing hard to get, and I don't know if that comes under romance or lust, since it links into both in a flirty way. I hope this makes some sense...
Nice shot. I like the lighting but think there could be a little more shadow areas. The whole front area is highlighted so the lack of shadows amplifies it a bit too strongly IMO.
Nice work, I like most things about this shot. The black backround isn´t winning me over though, this would just look so much cooler if there was a "forest" that was out of focus behind her. Anyway, one of the better shots in the challenge, got a 7 from me.
