Nude no. 085
It is a classic and beautifully done.

It is said that all good things will come to an end. I dread when that comes true as I will no longer have your images of nudes to enjoy! I think to myself "Damn! Would that I could!"

Thank you so much for your nice words.

I really like this one. And it's tailor made for monochrome or colour desaturation as any original colour would have been minimal anyway. Nice touch with the subtle separation light in the background. And I like that the object the model is posed on isn't lit; I think it would have taken focus away from the model if it were. I also like the rear point of view. Leaves you wanting more, and the lack of an identifying face only adds to the mystery. Classic pose too, with just enough shadow to give body tone. If I had one grizzle it might be for a little more light on the left arm (perhaps via the separation light), just to balance it slightly. All up I think this is a well thought out and executed image though; one to be proud of.

Thanks for your critique. As to the left arm: this is and was supposed to be a single light exercise. Except for the background light, we used only one light. Can we light the left side with a light coming from the right, sure we can. It’s easy, but we chose this classic version of Rembrandt lighting deliberately. It is exactly the effect we wanted. Your suggestion has merit, but we chose otherwise.
Retort?
Really one of your best one yet. Love the image, pose, lighting. Love the way the hair is placed and the details in her shoulders.
