PhotoArtist, this post complements your series and is certainly presented in good taste. Your rendering of the floral background with the water droplets is strikingly beautiful, and her pose is both focused and relaxed. Yoga is a very beautiful activity and stimulates a healthy mind, body, and spirit. My significant other has practiced yoga for years and is now a certified yoga instructor. This has enabled me to have a much deeper understanding of the benefits of yoga. I shared your photo with her, and she was overwhelmed with the spiritual beauty conveyed, and the fact that it explicitly displays the beauty of the female form was received very positively, when considering the other option of artificially hiding any part of the lady's anatomy.
Please do not hesitate to continue to share the strength and beauty you have so capably captured in photos, and enhanced with your exquisite post processing. KUDOS!

Well said, i totally concur with your comments an evaluation,
Excellent blending of two well chosen parts.
I love the concept, and the lady is gorgeous, but I'd prefer if the back ground was not so sharp and bright. And I prefer images without advertisement.
Your best! All were great, but this is the topper!

Exceedingly great photography - Start with excellent poised and calm model. Light her correctly, in this case relatively evenly. Photograph her - get the exposure, composition, dynamic range, and white balance all right. Post process onto a flower image that matches the dynamic range & white balance while maintaining good composition. You did all that, and got something worth all the effort. Beautiful, excellent, captures the nature of Yoga, and the serenity of the woman.
Fe things transfix me and this one did. This one I intend to study. The only comments I could make would reflect my specific inclinations, which are not necessarily yours.
Thank you for sharing.
The image is an artistic triumph.
Serenity, beauty, and composition - amazing!
Thanks everyone for your comments. They are always appreciated. The background was too dark and stark and would have made the shot look clinical without the bright flower. That addition also changed the focus to the entire frame which was good too. My accountant insists on the logo's presence. Thanks.
Thanks for your reasoned answer to my comments.

Thanks for your comments. That's why I post, to get feedback that helps me question my premises.

It never ceases to amaze me the those two areas of women, so TABOO to talk about or display publicly, you know the bits I mean, are the centre of life & sustaining it.
Most of us came from the vagina & spent the beginning of life taking sustenance from the breasts.
What is the big TABOO about them. Such a natural part of life???
Presented like this is so beautiful.
Beautifully done. Interesting composition and with the large flower.
