Shapes

 

I hope you like it.

 

Feedback appreciated.

This is a very interesting collection of shapes, natural and man-made. I particularly like the almost matching curves of the model and the background. The contrast of her skin against the background also works well. The direct view of her pubic area creates an interesting tension.

Great b/w and sense of composition and balance. thank you for sharing, G.

I like the idea but I would suggest a slightly different crop. Cheers. Yves P.

I am always humbled by the comments I receive on my images. Taking the time to alter an image and show me how you would have liked to see it is very much appreciated. I do love your crop. Thanks a lot.

Such a range of tones in such a relatively small space...one of your best black and whites for just that reason. As far as composition goes, I think you nailed it here...like the way her navel is in line with the top fret on the lute.

Kind words Jim. I think I have said it before. Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good.

very simple but well executed !

I like the original crop.

Thanks Phil. Most of the things I do in life are simple. I am glad you like the original crop but I do think it is always good to see alternatives.

I like the lines and the soft and hard of it. BW certainly adds to the image. Perhaps the lines on the left could have continued up and out of the frame but they don't detract as they are.

Thanks a lot! I did think of continuing the lines of both subjects. The reason I didn't was that the instrument was just too big and I felt the composition would suffer.

Very innovative and original. Technically very sound. The BW Tones are so good, the hair follicles on the pelvic part stand out and gives this a sensual edge.

Thanks a lot for the comment. This is an image I like myself for the reasons that you have mentioned.
