Perhaps a little too high key. Do let me know.

Feedback appreciated.

Well, as you said maybe is a bit out of a classic high key,although in photography as an art we can do our interpretation out of pure rules... You Know,really is a bit surprising for my taste,but isn´t a bad image of course,although her legs has  this ghost appearance ,in fact your post edition is deliberate finding this new effect.By the way for my taste is more important the narrow space leaved at the bottom,I would prefer more space in this area,about the red pepper is the counter in the image.Best regards  

I like that way you have used high-key in a unique way. In photography, as in many areas of like, you don't know where the boundaries are until you push against them. Well made, David!

I really like the effect. It pushes the boundaries as Mark pointed out, and the results speak for themselves. I think this treatment would make a great series of images that could be displayed as a group in very stylish surroundings. Very subtle and classy.

Mario, You comments are very much appreciated. You are correct about the space at the bottom of the frame. Thankfully this is easily corrected. The chilli isn't there. It is just a signature that I attach to my uploaded photographs. Thanks a lot.

Grigoriy, I was hoping that would be the case. It is good that you have let me know. Thanks.

Mark, The result was created more by playing than having any intent to shoot this. Playing can bring good results. Thanks a lot.

Alf, I rarely set out to shoot a series of photographs. While that is also the case here, I do have others. Thanks to your encouragement (and the encouragement of others) I may post them here. Thanks for that encouragement as well as the comment in general.

Jim, Thanks.

Thank you.

Beautiful high key image David. I had the feeling that if you tried it you would like it. The slight detail at the end of her legs is wonderful.

-Cheers

How right you are. I am looking forward to doing it again. Thanks for stopping by.

Mistery can be...white. Well done, my friend!

White, blue, red. Any colour is good. Thanks a lot.
