"Ne me touchez pas" is a very striking piece, much like the title says I see a very hands off look. The one thing that I think probably hurt this the most is that it really does hit a voter as more of a portrait more then a fashion. After looking at some of the highest rated images from the challenge, I am seeing a pattern of common images you would see in a magazine. Possible most voters where looking for that very commercial looking image.
I personally would have to say this is an amazing portrait and beautiful model. Technically it is one of the best I have seen. I learned awhile ago how important lighting the short side is to enhance the face and you had defiantly nailed it. The lighting is absolutely beautiful. The photo does seems so prefect, like something you would see in a museum. I think in a free study challenge it would have placed much higher. Keep up the excellent work.
Hey, this makes an absolutely lovely portrait!
But I am not able to understand the language of the title, maybe that is the reason I am not able to understand it's relation to "fashion"
Bumping up after second look, although she looks like she is frozen - almost devoid of emotion - kind of...odd to me, but that's just how it looks to me. I do like the soft tones and color values though.
