Nude no. 246
This is Autumn, shot about 7 years before I shot Sam in roughly the same spot, behind the same building in a doorway about 20 ft from the Sam shots. (This shot is dated 12JUL04 and the Sam shot is from 08AUG11.) The bricks are covered in the same paint (but not worn like the Sam bricks). I submit this shot only to show John Frim and whomever else might be interested what these bricks look like behind smooth, unblemished and clean skin. I had to look for this shot in my outtakes folders because in my stupidity I left her shirt and skirt at her feet, and the highlights are a bit blown out. I really was hard on myself when I saw what I had done. Rookie mistake. I was drinking and ___ more in those days. I hope the higher powers of photography can forgive me after all these years. Maybe on some future rainy day I will photoshop those garments out of this frame. Until then, this is what you get.
Okay, I just looked through my posted folder and I posted a cropped version of this shot in my post Nude no. 089. I apologize for the duplicate post. The reason I keep a posted folder is just so this type of thing doesn't happen. Oops.

Thank you! Indeed, I like the contrast of the wall with the "smooth, unblemished and clean skin." And I can overlook the blown highlights.
I had to go back to No. 089 to check out the cropped photo, which I think does a better job of accentuating the textural contrasts, even though the painted bricks are much smoother than in the more recent shot of Sam.

Ya, it's a different doorway on the same wall, it's as close as I could get without using another Sam shot. I would have referenced 089 if only I'd gone through my posteds about 5 minutes earlier. I like that crop better as well.
Thanks for the discourse.

It's ok if it's a different crop. She's a little on the hot side, (exposure) other than that she's a great model.
Beautiful, I love the contrast.
Killer body. I don't mind the clothes. Could be a great shot but an awful lot of bkg. at the top and right side. And a complete absence of yellow in the color. A tad overexposed also. But otherwise I like it.
Beautiful woman and pose but way too much magenta.

Adding yellow will balance that out.

I wonder if pos processing can help the over-exposed areas a bit?
I agree. Too much magenta
