This was my alternate entry...decided to take a chance with something a little different...nylon hose stretched over couple of pinching fingers provides the effect.

Very imaginitive shot and I instantly like the view and the seeming lip-like quality of the composition. That's a very deep pinch for skin and I think the title almost distracts me from the pic - it's nearly right but I think you would have needed a smoother membrane to use for the skin despite the metaphor.
I like the creative thinking behind it and it's well lit with good focus. [8]
A cute idea. The focus is a little too good - the threads of the fabric are very visible. Then, too, I doubt the skin is lit from within; getting the light on the same side of the fabric as the fingers might have made this more believable.
Intriguiging. I see not only the actual fingers through the nylon (my assumption) but also a pair of lips. I think this photo should be put out to more communities than this one to get feedback as it is interesting on several levels.
This is a fun image, and well executed, but it gives me the creeps for some reason. I hate the feel of panty hose... that's probably it! Nicely done, though. 9

interesting idea that doesn't quite come off for me...textures are distracting and the finger inside the nose is confusing quite a lighting effort I imagine
Good image, but with the following caveat: the skin is a bit parched and unflattering. Also, there's a bit of processing artifacts in the dark area of the bottom finger.
