Nude Crucifix

I liked the "halfnude" version better. But(t) u r a pretty girl so what the heck..*LOL*

 

The paralellogram grill is amazing. It signifies lines in the female nude behind it in a new way. The squares.. well.. it doesn't intrigue me

 

Let's see more from your hand!

Mortals and Temptation. The Great Force, always lurking in the shadows, always watching. The outstretched arms seeking liberation. The soul, tortured by the turmoil of reaching for the light of experience and independence yet "nailed" to the darkness of institutionalized ignorance and shame. It is nothing short of amazing how beautifully you portray your sentiment in your works, without resorting to barbarian shock and revulsion.

I couldn't have been any more poetic than Scott Blair. (Adelaide S.A.)

Very artistic in the use of the frame in the foreground and the background light, it almost gives a meaning that this woman is being exorcise of her demons by the image of the crucifix.

Very nice conception--my favorite in this series. The window-door-cross theme might lend itself to a lot of equally arresting variations of positioning, lighting, and perhaps color, if used with subtlety.

Best one in series. Good lighting and composition.

Hi Amy. There's a wonderful atmosphere& mystique to this picture.. I love the streak of light

coming from the door.. Regards, L*

I like the concept of this shot....but I wish the light coming in was softer...also a bit of fill on the other side, you are losing a bit of shape on that side ( models, your, left side)..

Excellent once again. I made some comments on another photo .... balance, sensitivity etc., but I forgot to add a key word which is "intelligence". It emanates from the both the model and her photos.

I've always been interested in the juxtaposition and the occasional merging of sexually and religion. There always seem to be a tension between the two. Every indivuals seems to strive for a balance between the beauty and grace of the human form and the puritan values of church and state. Somewhere, if we are lucky, we strike that balance in our lives. Thanks for illustrating this struggle in your work and sharing a part of you that most people repress.

Keep up the good work

This is great I would like to know how you did this one

as far as lighting and what you used

this picture is very haunting. really stuck with me for awhile I like how I have to peer around the imposing cross of guilt to see the sexuality of the woman

post and beam - flesh and bone...good job!

I have watched your work for some time and at last, you have made a real piece here. It is raw, human. The inside of you exposed.

The other shots I have seen before appeared too fabricated, as if you tried too hard or were sampling. This is original and true to whatever is in your head.

Beautiful!

Stay with it.

 

While i personally don't like this photo, it is impossible to deny the fact that it is well composed and very expressive. So much is happening on so many levels (which explains why so many people are each seeing this picture so differently). Yet one more example of the depth of your artistic talent. Don't let anyone tell you your work is fabricated, or you're trying too hard. You have real talent and a creative mind.

for something as over done as the crist figure its really refreshing to see a new angle on it. to me its like a DaDa or surrealist twist. acutaly i enjoyed al the imaged in the series- this one struck me as my favorite. all the best and keep exploring.

I really like your work Amy, I am a landscape photgrapher and I get inspired by what other talented photographers do...thanks for the inspiration. I have read some oof the critisism about your work, just remember...it's YOUR work and obviously your passion!! Keep up the great work. I have sent you one of mine...I hope you like it as well. Bob

Nice use of repeating patterns. I particuarly like the way that the light seems to follow along the horizontal window grid.

 

I really like your use of props frames and grids in this series.

Amy:

 

This is the best of all of them in the portfolio. Get some more postings up. We have not heard from you in a while.

Amy,

 

Absolutely brilliant! You are one talented lady. I attached a male version of the crucifixion pose.

I think this is my favorite from the series. The double cross is excellent. The graniness and "filter" from the glass add sooo much feeling and intensity to the scene.
