Signature work for you, John. The melding of the architecture and the lovely curves and lines of the model are another masterpiece. You continue to inspire and educate me.

Simply beautiful. Falls into that category of images I wish I had captured. The lighting, tones, and sharpness are all spot on. The models have done a wonderful job here. Bravo.

Really love the composition/setting and the beautiful lines the model has created. If one looks at these sort of things, her right arm looks to be missing. For me it is not a distraction. The only other thing that jumps out is that it seems grainier relative to your other work...on purpose? Lovely.

I saw the color version and played with it a bit. I ended up doing two different BW conversions for each side. This is what I meant.

Yes, quite lovely. Love the contrasting tones and the setting. The only thing that seems odd are the trees on the left which seem almost ghostly-white. I might try and play with the BW sliders in PS to see if something else can be made of them. My point being that the way they are now, it appears that the leaves and trunk of the tree are the same "color" that is being compensated for in a BW conversion. Maybe that is the case, but just appears odd in this beautiful composition. Nice job.

@Andrew - Thanks for the nice words and the comment. I guess I should have gone with my gut feeling. The model really liked this image, and I disagreed. It is nice to get a second opinion.

Justin - You have not lost your touch. The perfect lighting and drama. The pose is very complimentary as the curve of her left hip and position of her hands are just perfect. The model is not too bad either. LOL.

Nicely done post production. Adds just the right amount of drama. Congrats.

This caught my eye. Lovely capture with all the color and angles. Good eye and nicely done.

Not quite sure about the pose. Not sure if the sharp angle of her

elbow is distracting or just adds nice contrast to the curves.

Beautiful colors and lines. Her pose and the shadows play well together. I think I like this one better than the other one with with blue treatment, although that did catch my eye first. Nice job.

Nicely done. Beautifully composed and captured.

@Jerry - Yes, I do need to bring back some texture in her hair. Thanks!

Lovely flowers and lovely model. I am not sure which is supposed to catch my attention. The model is beautiful and obviously topless and is contributing a great pose, but she is washed out. This seems unintentional. The flowers, don't grab my attention as they are in the bottom right of the whole image. Hopefully that is helpful criticism.

Elena, I am not one to judge, but this doesn't quite work for me. It seems forced and unnecessary.  Actually, minus the second woman biting the stocking, the one woman standing looking down with this outfit would be quite nice. Again, I have no idea of the intention here, so I might be way off of what you intended.

I do love the rest of your portfolio though.

This is simply wonderful! So well conceived and executed. Bravo!!

This works extremely well. Smoldering and sexy. Nicely done.

Lovely colors and lighting. Beautifully conceived.

I wish I had done something else with her hair and maybe the gaze

could have been different. Your thoughts are welcome.
