Innocence

I don' know about the title, but the composition is nicely executed in B/W. It is soft lighted  and very feminin.

Thank you so much for commenting. I highly value your judgement. I am rather dismayed that this image is not getting very high ratings, because I consider it some of my best work. Of course, all is in the eye of the beholder, eh? I have a whole series from this shoot that is trickling out into the world, and I had hoped for more positive reactions. Time will tell.

I for one enjoy this image a lot. There's a sensuality through composition rather than just subject matter. The editing process gives this image an ethereal feel (IMHO) and serves to enhance its appeal for me. I don't know if I understand the title well enough to comment but, for me, it suggests an exploration of sexuality. An innocence in the unknown perhaps?

In any event I like many things about this work. compliments Stephanie

Thank you for your positive comments, X. I will change the title, but haven't yet figured out what to. I learn so much from being here on PN.

This image is currently on exhibit at Viewpoint Photographic Art Center, Sacramento, CA.

This image was accepted into the North Valley Art League's photography show, which has become an international show with over 1300 entries, from all over the US and 20 countries. So, I am pleased that more people will see the actual print. Anyone in the Northern California area during the month of May, 2013 is urged to check out the beautiful gallery, located in Caldwell Park, Redding, CA.

I love the tones and the composition too

I see that I rated it when I first viewed it, and I surely would have given it a "7."

In any case, it is extraordinarily good work.
