Untitled

... for times past .. and yet to come ...

Crop this image, desaturate it, and submit it as a portrait. It will stand on it's own, even without the beautiful breasts.

Sure Frank, excellent crop, thank you, but it bears no relation to this picture, why not the eyes alone then also ?

 

I have a multitude of portraits of this model already. She is outstanding all around ...

loose crop actually show the fact that she is at ease.

Love the composition and light, John!! Best regards my friend!!

The title works well with the foto. She seems to be contemplating the photographer.

Excellent work John.Very nice model glance.7/7.Regards.Janusz.

A simple but very beautiful photo.

I also like the title very much.

John, I've been an admirer of your work for a couple of years now and I even occasionally post a comment. So, it's been a while and I thought I'd put my "two cents" in on this one. I love it for two reasons. First, the pastel-like colors are just perfect.Second, you always have a way with your models' eyes. You seem to capture that perfect moment of body language and "the look" that makes the model's pose say something to the camera. I admire that a lot. I guess that's what art is! Anyway, well done my friend and best regards!-Marty

So Frank's crop bears no relevance to the picture.... Actually most pictures (yours, mine and probably Frank's) are irrelevant in their entirety. Frank's crop is no less relevant than the full image. However that is only my opinion. Frankly speaking if the crop bears no relevance, it is quite clear what does. I will spare you my alternative crop. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to work out what it would be!

 

A lovely snap of a beautiful girl!

 

Yep .. a lot of irrelevance around ... :-)

Beautifully done! I like the pose, her expression and the cropping. A very beautiful nude portrait done with excellent taste. Good one!

I wouldn't make it b&w , The colors make the photo so gentle and calm . It's really beautiful john , She is amazing

Nice expression and light. Very good work!

Excellent cropping,colours,exposure and light,John. Her skin tone is glowing.

I best like it in your nude portrait pofolios. Perfect body and perfect picture.

 

Congratulation, JOhn Peri.

Hi John

 

Nice to see you posting those great shots again. However I have to say that, in my opinion, the crop shouldn't be so tight on the top of the frame 'cause it cuts off her head. Also some space at the right side of the frame would let the subject "breathe". Certainly it adds some mystery to it but then again you know better what you want to show us and how to do it. Your work and technique is excellent as always .

Why suggest the crop in the first place? When I see this image MY eye's go directly to her eyes, as they should, then admire the rest of the image as a whole.

Just my opinion....

Great Shot John!!

She's lovely and you caught her perfectly.

Precisely Scott, thank you. I submitted this as a "nude portrait", but that is exactly where the eye should fall, hence the cropping too ..

 

Glad so many people appreciated this, thank you very much. Kudos to the exceptional model, the few hours with whom I spent together have translated into a wealth of wonderful material. Indeed, Nostalgia is well named ...

Beautiful, John.

Ian

beautiful shot of this model, I have seen quite a bit of her in your port and each shot never stops amazing me

 

Light, crop, color, pose...all just beautiful. It seems to me to be a tad bit blury though, especially the face. Then again, it could just be my monitor or something. As always, love your work!

You've got something working in this picture that I can't identify. That's what makes it GOOD!

 

best,
