Taken with a white background with light from window off to the left. Self portrait.
took out some color and lightened it. Added a bit more contrast, then softened it up.

Great shot. I really like how you cropped out her eyes. I love the soft blur to this, too. Only suggestion - I would've liked to have seen the bottle actually spraying. Gave this a 10, though.
NICE! This is exactly what I wanted to do.....but, I couldn't find a willing participant.
Things I like: the softness of the image is very appealing. the angle of the shot and how it shows the area where the neck hits the shoulders.
Things I don't like: the mouth is distracting. the crop of the hand is too close and gives me the feeling of tension instead of ease. the softness of the image is just a little too much, I like the softness, but would have prefered a little less.
What I would have done differently: crop to just below the mouth showing just the chin. show more skin, as in no shirt what so ever. leave more room to the right of the hand. less soft.
Beautiful. Soft focus and delicate contrast work perfect for this image. Composition and framing are fine. The only negative is that the subjects hand extends to the edge of the frame.
The soft focus, the white shirt against white background, the rose nails, lips and bottle cap, all together adding to the expression of a soft feminine scent. very good.
Just lovely. Neat filter and wonderful light. The composition, pose and color are fantastic to me. Good job, Yeah for you this is super. p.s. her lipstick matches her nailpolish......wonderful.
the soft focus and pastels make this very pretty. It lacks a little wow for me just for that reason but I think it might do very well as an advertising image.
Beautifully done. I just love the soft focus, and the soft colors. The only thing that I find distracting is what I can see of her facial expression and the way she has her mouth set. I'm sorry, I can't really put my finger on what it is, but it does detract from the overall sensuous feel of the shot, for me. 8
