Hello from the critique club

An appealing image that meets the challenge.

A lovely studio shot of a beautiful lady with perfect colours for the challenge brief. The lighting is good bringing out all the detail well, her pose is good with her weight distribution making a nice shape to her bum. I̢۪m gonna be really pedantic here because that̢۪s what I̢۪m here for! Three minor improvements I would make, yes as you and your commenter have observed, the lack of hair would have made for a simpler more effective image. Secondly, a little more symmetry by placing the left arm in the corner the same as the right and cropping just a little lower so that there is no flesh above the top of the corset. And finally, yes I know its pedantic but it does matter, that twist in the top of her knickers by her right hand is just a tad annoying.

Well looking back at this the score distribution is all over the chart. A total of 6 people gave me 1s and 2s. But on the other end of the spectrum 11 8's. What a weird score distribution. Overall I would have liked this to have done better but what can I say, it is what it is.

Can't really understand the scoring here, but o well.

Someone mentioned they would like to see the hair removed, I agree, this would actually make for a better image.

I think the dark grey background really hurts this. I don't mind the idea of a rim light here, but the background and floor being kind of lit gives this the impression of underexposed (not a pun!)

Nicely shot! I think without the hair would have been better for the score, though.
