I detest them too. I keep a pair of scissors in my gear to cut them out. The fact that this one avoided me is perplexing, but it was dark, LOL. Editing it out is a good call

These images have a very different ambience from your usual fine images. I like them. Good series!

Believe it or not, I think the initial shot is my favorite in this series.
Although all have their attractions, that shot, with all its shadows - on both your lovely model and the various walls, corners etc - and the subdued neo-grainy lighting of the whole pose, make for a great "mood" piece. I could easily see this adorning the cover of a Mickey Spillane type of paperback.
Beyond that, I love the expression is #2, her mood in #3, and #5 is simply a great combination of light directing the focus to the undeniable eroticism of her figure.

The problem seems to be the reflection from the skin of her right elbow onto the wall where she is leaning against the wall. Also causing the right lit elbow to extend the shape of the breast. There are several ways in handling this. One would be having her not be touching the wall, allowing the shadows to separate her from the wall. Another would be darkening the wall itself to define the fall of the shadow. Another to have dropped her hand and positioned the right shoulder to elbow behind the profile of her right breast.
Overall, good shots.

Very nice set, with the purple really accenting the photos and contrasting with the model's hair. #2 (full length) in my opinion is one of the most sexy shots you have posted of your muse, coming together with the angle, outfit, lighting, pose, look on her face, etc. with #4 placing second. My only complain is the lighting emphasize is on the opposite wall (and window) so for fun I darken both down - what do you think?.

Sound advice, but I probably will never shoot this setup again, and if I do, I will put the lights in a completely different spot. I am, however, planning on doing a few more subdued light sets with these LED fixtures because they can achieve a candlelight/firelight quality so easily. In fact, I plan on ordering a third fixture soon. They are some of the best money I've ever spent on gear.
The main issue with the execution of these shots was not being able to see the model clearly. I set up the camera to give a fairly wide depth of field and then just asked her to move then hold. When she stopped in a new postion, I triggered the camera.

Beautiful series. I vote #3. Based on pose, poise and facial expression. That is worth canvas.
