Untitled Nude (SH_003)

Just want to hear your opinion on this shot. Execution, compostion

etc. Thank you very much!

Very nice. composition is good. tones are nice. Wish you would have made the hair perfect though.

Very good tones and color. I have always liked the side view of a breast like that because it has pleasing soothing lines without baring anything and without having any risk of being pornographic. This image is relatively innocuous and yet still can create wonder and is a pleasing photograph of the body as form and shape. I agree the hair could be neatened up some, or changed to give more texture, however it is still excellent.

Kevin... can you please expand on your comment about the hair? I think this is a nice image, the little bit of mussed hair I think adds to the composition.

Looks like I am not the only one that didn't like the hair as Carl seemed to agree with me. I am a portrait photogarpher and I like hair neat. Also, I look at alot of photographs by the great masters. You look at Weston's nudes and the hair always seems to be neat. You look at Berhard's nudes and the hair always seems to be neat. Plus, I am quite bald myself and I think if one is lucky enough to have hair one ought to keep it neat. Once again, this is a very good shot. With the hair neat it would be one I would pay money for.

color, tones, cropping, all perfect. I even like the messy hair.

Thank you all very much for your comments. The girl actually has curly hair. But next time I defenitely shall pay more attention to it.

This is a beauty of a shot, the jury is out on the mussy hair though, doesn't bother me or excite me and I thought it went with the pose. Actually I thought Alexander did it intentionally to make a statement. By the pose she seems to be in despair (my interpertation) so the hair being messed up would fit.

I really like this one!
