 ...parce que la forme masculine est douce à la fois.

C'est peut-être cliché, mais si elle est "Saint Agur", je pourrais protestation. Mais pour moi, cette image, ce modèle, cette lumière, signifie quelque chose.

Very nice shot. I'm definitely a fan of gender-neutral photos and this is a very fine example.

interesting comp and subject. The photo quality is there and it feels very arty - a bit too self-centered for my taste though but definitely meets the challenge. 6

The androgynous aspect is intriguing. I especially like your crop/composition, with all the space at the bottom. Nice tones, focus.

One of my 9s - the tones are unusual yet effective. I even like the highlights on the back.

I think the fact that you have placed a lot of space between the viewer and your subject has paid dividends.

Was a bit less negative space at the bottom not an option? I tried scrolling till it was a square... Not mandatory of course, but somehow I think the photograph would be "tighter" without the darker part beneath.
