Nudes are a total new subject to me, this one is my debut on this delicate topic of photography. My thoughts were, to get a shot of unobtrusive sexyness, which is impressing rather with soft lines, than with sharp boobs ;-). I'm looking forward to your comments!
The setup was quite simple: a sofa, one lamp and a remote control to release the shutter...
After the challenge:
1. "Two female bodies"? No, hehe, but I see it as an compliment ;-)
2. "A male hand"? No, the hand is female. Perhaps it looks a little strange because of the backlight and the high contrast.
Thank you for your nice comments, I'm really proud to be in the top 10 in this challenge.

I love the horizontal flow of this image. I think the warm lighting is excellent and the composition is absolutely perfect. I think the hand serves very well as a primary point of focus. The border looks great too. Excellent job.
Very nice image of an intimate moment captured in a delicate and tasteful way. The warm tones add much to the image and I'm glad you didn't try to go with a stereotypical black and white.
Lovely composition and great use of light and shadow. Love the warmth of the light too. And the subject is a nice choice of detail - intimate and yet almost abstract.
Welcome to the Nude challenge. Nice shot. Nice use of body curves. My suggestion: to move the hand further in the back to reveal more of the natural curve of the woman's bottom. I think the curves are what make this shot interesting, and not the hand. As it is, the hand is masking too much. Good thing: love the fact that the man's hand has a ring: it gives a context to the shot. Very nice detail. Keep it up!
