Untitled

First nude. Does it work?

More topless than nude, but more importantly my scanner does the same thing - putting those lines through the image. What's up with that?

I wish I knew! It is a pain to edit out. And yeah, more topless than nude, but some people are more sensitive than others so I went with nude to warn them off.

i like this soft hair on her shoulders (back)

Photography is about the "thing" photographed. As Edward Weston Used to say, "I don't care if the photo is printed on a floormat so long as the subject matter is good". Who cares about some lines? Not me. Here, there is a "realness" and a "look" about the person photographed that is absolutely exquisite! Lets see more.

The lines are indeed a pain to edit out Robert. My websites sells my wedding photography, so I can't have lines there at all.

I like the expression on the model's face. She looks pleasant, natural--not aggressively sexual.

I found myself wondering how this shot would look in color.....

If the line comes from a film scanner, carefully blow it out with compressed air--it appears you have a dirt speck on the sensor element...if it isn't a scratch.

This photo feels sincere and warm and confident, what more could one want? The line would bother me if it were my photo, but not yours. A portrait to be proud of, and I'll bet your subject likes it as well.
