I am guessing that I will recieve at least three 1 votes just because it is a nude. Also, I am predicting that I will receive at least ten votes with a 3 and under, again, because it is a nude. Oh well, I like the image and I think the challenge subject "skin" fits extremely well with a artistic nude.
Well I recieved 8 votes of 3 and under. Better that what I had predicted. Thanks for all the wonderful comments and ribbon. I appreciate it very much. The strange line under her elbow is her breast. Oh, how I wish I would of noticed that when I was shooting these. Every one of them had just a small line.

Jennifer, as always, your work is breathtaking, I'm so glad there were enough people to counteract the ridiculous votes of 4 and under! Jeeeeeeeeez. . .it is a SKIN challenge for heaven's sake. And this is skin presented at its best! Congratulations on a well-deserved ribbon!
Stunning image, and this should have been blue. Unfortunatly, some people find it hard to look at human skin, and prefer the snake of a skin, giving you low votes in the process.

There's a lovely mood to this - The noise reduction adds to it, whereas I normally hate noise reduction on skin. Strange ghosting around the elbow though.
stunning,im thinking of more to say but i cant i love everything about this picture, the position of the model the lighting everything this is the winner for me, and i havnt finished looking at the rest.
Beautiful soft lighting and I love the positioning of your subject. Normally I'd be unhappy with the head cut off along with the legs but I think this works well. Best of luck, I think you'll do very well. 8
