Very beautiful shape and colors. Want to hang this on my wall.

Nice idea but the lighting is too flat to make this minimal entry work.

Well done. Use of the suit as a focal point makes this shot work.

This is nice. I wish youluck in the challenge. I think it will do O.K. I think t would do better if the lighting was different. Good luck.

This is a good idea, but I think could be better executed.
Lighting could be made waay more interesting. I assume this is done with the on camera flash or a light from the right.
If the light was more from the left and was from a window or soft box, you woud get a light shadow on the right showing more contours of the body.

Great in its simplicity & detail.

Great Idea, and I lactually like the bikini in the shot. There's really not much I can say to improve it. I think a solid contrasting color of a bikini might have been more basic, and clean. Good luck.

Nice curve. I like the color splash the bikini adds to the photo. Nice lighting. I think a healthy dose of water droplets on the model would help to define the skin and give texture. Overall nice photo.

Nothing very interesting about this photograph. Doesn't bring any emotions, colours are normal and to my eyes, doesn't quite reflect the 'Nude' theme. Composition is non-existant. 4

beautifull

I like the way you smoothed out the skin while leaving the bikini colors to pop.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The exposure is good. I can't say this is exciting or that it holds my interest for very long.

I like the concept of this shot. My only suggestion would be to move the model's side to one of the vertical 3rds lines. I think this would give the shot a more interesting balance. This crop creates an interesting abstract which I like.

thats a low riding bikini! If you had your model jut her hip you would have created a more defined curve.

Well done technically but boring compositionally. 6

The bikini is actually a bit of a distraction. The lighting seems a little harsh

Funny how you see the old woman's profile or the glass? I still remember that illusion. This is the same - at first I couldn't figure it out. This is smart and very clear. I don't find it outstandingly interesting, but it is well shot and focused well. 7

I like that you effectively cut the image in half. The lighting is a little flat but focus and DOF are great. I think a POV a little lower would serve the image better.

does wearing a bikini count as nude?
i think compared so a lot of the other shots in the challenge this just isnt as interesting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Seems to me this could've been done without showing the bikini and not revealing anything either. In fact, I think it would've made for an excellent sillhouette. Good luck.
