Wow, creative idea of minimalism! I wonder how it would work showing even less of the shoulder. Good job.

Great work. Very original. I love the lines of the ear, curl, mandible, neck and clavicle. One of my favorites so far.

Perfect entry and title. One of my favs of the challenge. Good Luck.

This idea is very good but I would like to see more clear focus on the hair and not as centered in the picture as it is since it is the focus point of the picture. The shoulder is leading you to the hair but still a bit more to the right would be better. But then this is just my opinion and others might object. Good luck!

Good idea and lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/28/2005 05:20:51 AM
Great concept. I think I would have cropped out a little more from the left and bottom. But the colarbone is nice, maybe just crop the left a bit.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/28/2005 05:02:03 AM
Beautiful and sensual. Grand lighting and composition. -9

The only thing I think would need improovement is the noise in the upper left corner. Good luck in the challenge.

Commenting only. Lovely. One of the few I feel meet the title of the challenge. I just wouldn't be mean enough to knock off points for this well executed photograph. gl

Creative and i hope our voters will see it and attach the importance to the curl.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/27/2005 10:11:08 AM
I really like this! I wonder if it would be a little stronger if the frame were move to the left a little more, so we see just the edge of her cheek and more of the shoulder. I think that line would've been a little more dramatic. Still, one of my favorites so far.

I like! nice and original.

For me, a very nice photo. Elegant. A more solid white, as opposed to a gradation in the neg space might register more with my eyes. 7
