alexo 9 Posted September 5, 2002 Good composition, good lighting. The water drops add the much needed texture. It's a very good shot. Link to comment
heather_hostage 0 Posted September 10, 2002 This is very well done. As said, the water adds a perfect amount of texture. The human body is such a great thing to photograph. Absolutely beautiful! Link to comment
alex marsaud 0 Posted September 10, 2002 Amazing idea, with a terrific realization. The drops add to the sensual / sexual provocation, suggesting physical effort... Great lighting and composition, but this is rather obvious. One thought though: top curve slightly too harsh (does it make any sense??) to my taste, breaking a little the aesthetic beauty of the pic. Cheers, Alex Link to comment
secondsight 0 Posted September 10, 2002 Explicit without being rude...I didn't think it was possible...Good job... Link to comment
mg 0 Posted September 10, 2002 Very good lighting again, and not in the face, despite the subject... Yet, not me, but bare in mind that this image could be objectionable to some people... Regards. Link to comment
seven 0 Posted September 10, 2002 Reminds me of a capsicum, possibly a budding tulip. The droplets are a fine touch, the diagonal's a peach. Nice work. Link to comment
michael_lee15 0 Posted September 11, 2002 Very nice photo, very good work....... composition is very good...... this photo let's the viewer know ....... all part's of the body can be art...... Link to comment
wespettus 0 Posted September 11, 2002 This could pass almost for some fractured stone after a rain. It's a beautiful study of texture and form. You've handled for some what may be a touchy subject in a very artistic and sensitive way. Very nice. Link to comment
gianni_cazzulo 0 Posted September 11, 2002 An enlightening image. Superbly photographed ..... and, if not offensive, why mention it? Link to comment

marcin_gadomski 0 Posted September 16, 2002 Trevor, cool down... This is not pornography. By the way, are you a priest? The picture is superb! Link to comment
gianni_cazzulo 0 Posted September 17, 2002 This photo is bold, and by that very fact, it escapes from the mundane and ordinary. The lighting is quite extraordinary, giving an otherwise anatomical detail tremendous force and impact. I would normally find a photo of such intimacy quite distasteful. In this particular case, it is a work of art. Congratulations to the author and his model for their audacity and imagination. (edited to remove non-critique comments) Link to comment
John Peri 1,029 Posted September 21, 2002 The author has to be commended for tackling a very difficult subject. He has succeeded in creating a fascinating image and I find it beautiful irrespective of the subject matter. Link to comment
gaoyan_xie 0 Posted September 28, 2002 I am not a priest, even not a beliver to any religion. But I did feel this picture objectionable and offensive, though technically it is well done. Intimacy is Intimacy, I donot belive that ANY part of human body can be ART. I cannot understand why the photographer chose such a subject. I donot like this kind of way of capturing public attention by over-audacity. Link to comment
twmeyer 0 Posted October 14, 2002 Photographed with technical competence, but all the eroticism has been designed out of this subject. It is now an object for us to free associate. For me, this apparatus has been graphically disassociated from anything womanly, which means it has no erotic impact on me. As stated above, it could be a stone... "subject" or "object" seems to be our issue, yes? This object has no eroticism to me, unless it is attached (literally, visually, spiritually or metaphorically) to a subject, i.e. a woman... t Link to comment
twmeyer 0 Posted October 14, 2002 "No-one claimed that the photo is erotic, Trevor"... Actually, Gianni, it says "Erotic" in bold, 16 pt type right at the top of this page... t Link to comment
uncle_ziba 0 Posted October 19, 2002 I think there are two ways to look at the water droplets. One is to view them as a condensation, which usually suggests a cold surface. That may explain why some viewers assosiate this image with a rock. Another way to view the droplets as a sweat on a steamy body. Igor what was your intention? I think the later :-) Link to comment
manuel.rincon 0 Posted October 31, 2002 indeed provocative, abstract photography is not, for sure. Good done! Link to comment
bruce_jones3 0 Posted December 27, 2002 The essence of art can stimulate debate. Bravo. Very well executed. It is a wonderful image. Thank you. Link to comment
