I'd say that this pose is quite a classic but it hasn't worked here. The model just doesn't have the shape needed. She has pinned her arms in and that has brought her back in, she really needed to open her shoulders out to get the figure 8. The lighting seems a little too strong from the left and you've lost detail there and, this is just a personal comment, sticking out spines just don't seem very attractive or flattering. I've looked at your other shots of Anna and she certainly seems shapely enough but here she seems boney. Oh, just a small thing, the angle of the table edge is quite distracting. -
It reminds me of the A-Ha video for "Take on me". Diffusing the mirror was a good choice. You maybe need a little more detail to the model's left hand side of her body which seems to have been lost but, as the guy above says, interesting. -
I feel the colours have a quite painted/graphic effect, mainly due to
the lighting, and I like it. It might be a little too busy but I
think all the elements help to frame and break up the shot.

I had to come and look at this shot as it looked very like the output of a pinhole camera. (a good thing) It has a good mood, thanks mainly to good use of the film, but I don't think you've captured strongly enough the fact we are in a cemetry. I think you really needed to place an easily identifiable object to the fore as this type of film takes away the details. Had you not said it had been taken in a cemetry I wouldn't have known and, what with the chimneys, would have assumed it was some odd cityscape. -
good composition, nicely lit but you've categorised this as a nude and for that I would say you need to show a little more of the model's form to make that "suggestion". might be worth revisiting this shot. -
A few have had a look @ this without it being submitted for critique,
so I thought I'd open it up to all.

Autumnal view of The Eye, trying to get a different mood out of the
subject

a very good series of photos, I'm guessing but I'd say that Karen would have been well pleased with them. this is my favourite then it would be fishnet and then cross. simply composed, well lit, flattering (though you might have lit/posed her to smooth out her nose tip a little) the word I'd use would be alluring.

Graffiti used to be a symbol of urban decay and a voice of
disenfranchised youths, now it's the daubings of bored sub-
urban/rural kids who are taking a break from playing with their X-
boxes. I don't know which is the worst decline.

for me, this shot looks too staged. from where it has been taken, you can only imagine that the photographer would interfere the Guard's line of fire. taken from a little further to the left would have brought more of the shadow on the rock into frame and a little less DOF would have been better as well. -
a great reason to take your camera everywhere, it seems to give you license to approach all manner of people and people seem to react very differently to you when you if you're toting one. A nice portrait, enough detail in the face and with a very good background. Nicely framed.

I don't really see that moving to the right would have made any sense here. you've got a great composition and really good contrast but I would say that the subject isn't clear. without you saying they were firefighters I would, maybe, have got it eventually. there's nothing (apart from the huge fire truck in the background) that says it's anything other than three guys chilling. nothing wrong with that mind but some sort of point of reference would have been useful.

this would probably benefit from having a portion from the top and the whole of the bottom half cropped. it may just be the scan but there seems no purpose to these areas. interesting detail otherwise.
-
This really works well in B&W, you did a good job in PS. I especially like the fact that you didn't close in the top right hand corner with a border, it would have taken away from the distance travelled up the stairs.

The gentleman looks like Anthony Hopkins in Hannibal. I'd like to see this with a closer crop. The right hand side seems to have a thick black border. I like the colours and general composition though.
-
I think this would have greater impact if you cropped it square. The bottom third of the shot doesn't really add anything, the ghost hand is a distraction, and by cropping you would have a tighter composition of the different faces. The half face over the old man's right shoulder, for me, makes the old man's expression ask more from us. -
I think this would benefit from a little editing. The aerial wire running across in the top of the frame, for me, is a distraction and the pole has a similar effect on the foreground. Without those elements the photo would be ageless. Good DOF, contrast, and interesting reflections in the water. -
It's hard to tell from what we have to look at, is it the scan that has rendered the shot out of focus? You haven't got the whole car in frame, the colours are muted and it seems under exposed. The sky seems to have come out ok though. -

A beautiful face with lovely detail and contrast, however, I find the body's setup to be a little distracting and feel the pose of the body creates a confusing background. -
Your thoughts would be appreciated
