Nicely done! I think your soft focus works really well here! i personaly like a full mug shot rather than the teasers, but thats just me ;-)

Very erotic and sensual. I enjoy the softness of the whole image. The pose and most importantly your mouth leave the viewer wondering whats going on. I like it.

What i like: awesome composition, the not-too much contrast goes here well. What i don't like: definitely the chain, it harshly removes all tenderness that's supposed to associate with the female body; placement of the head: i'd much rather see the eyes as opposed to the inside of the nose. And lastly, i think it would look more appealing in high key, not hard contrasty high key, but also soft, yet bright high key.

Love the composition, it's caught just right. Very sensual pose.

Interesting pose and compositon, but too heavy on the anti-noise tools

The noise removal made the otherwise interesting structure on the skin disappear. A pity. I'd have placed the hand a bit lower, showing but the fingers. Nice idea not to show the eyes. The wather has to imagine your face.

Looks over smooth. a lower iso speed or less noise reduction would help. Noise is not always bad. 4

Focus, depth, composition, levels and cropping all excellent. Nice and soft and well suited to the pose. The necklace actually adds to the image providing asymmetric reference imo. Nails are dressed well for the occasion. Had spot-editing been allowed, the reflection in the nostril and small wall shadow on backdrop could be removed for good effect. 9! Good luck!

Looks very over-neat-imaged. Fingers look fake. Good framing.

nice framing, but the focus is a but blurry and the light is too soft... good neck line though, hand plays good in shot... small white dot at lower right confuses me visually, a bit though

unfortunitly there is a small object in the nose of the artist or possible a clomp of hairs that take away from the shot.

otherwise i c no prob. with the pic.

except the grayscale which is incomplete
