Welllllllll, Leroy, it seems many of us had the same impression that she was looking for a bathroom. Contrary to your comment in the scores thread, I don't think that makes any of us "sick."
The pose strikes me as her relieving herself more than crossing a stream. I'm also not getting the story here - why is she not wearing underwear? And what's at a distance?
The drape seen through the model's legs is not appealing. (Reminds me of toilet paper!) I do like the black and white for this shot. It pulls the textures.
Hmm, I feel entering this in a challenge entitled "from a distance" is a little dubious, since the focus is on the women near by, however I do really love the photo! Based on photographic merit alone this is by far my favourite image in the competition. I guess this does just about fit the rules though so I've still given it an 8, which is my joint highest score. Perhaps if I didn't like the image so much I'd have been less flexible.
Love the texture of the skin, looks like porcelain. Although the pose is a little unpleasant for me, maybe that pose without the dress could looks to me nicer. Is that sunlight?
Interesting image and the light on skin is lovely. I am not sure it is well suited for the challenge, but with a nice, well processed image I am not too much of a stickler for rules.
