Intentionally shallow DOF to "paint" with color in the background. Your comments are

appreciated.

Hi Peter, Yet again lower marks than this deserves but it seems to be one of those weeks here. This picture is subtle, sensuous and quite unique. Tony

Outstanding in every way; shallow DOF, subtle colour and tone and sensitive, aesthetic composition culminate in a fine image.

Keep up the good work.

Wonderful capture.

Thank you all for taking the time to comment on this photo, and for your kind assessments. In regards to Tony's point, I try not to worry about numerical ratings, but I am humbled and grateful when people care enough to leave feedback, for good or bad.

This is a photo of a naked woman....very beautiful yes, but since when has this been fine art. Fine are involves creativity, not just the presence of a good looking chick with no clothes.

The human body has been one of the primary subjects of art since prehistoric times, and it seems you have a poor grasp of art history and a sad agenda. You're certainly welcome to criticize my work, but your sexist comment is disrespectful and unnecessary.

There's more art in the loose strands of this beautiful woman's hair than there is in anything ever painted on canvas or captured on film. Wonderful photo. The woman is the fine art.

I love this photograph's mood,

The shallow DOF works wonderfully and I can't think of anything that should be changed. The light caressing her front is very delicate, overall a very beautiful photo! Wonderful job Peter.

Best Wishes,

Sarah Kane

There is more mystery and drama in this shot than I see in most nudes, so I had to have a closer look.

one of the best nudes on pn - imho of course

beautiful, soft and symphatethic picture

Your use of selective focus with this pose makes for a very sexy picture.
