I must be missing something. What does 'SHOEHORN!" mean?

well, don't know why you did it, you must have expected a ton of DNMCs, but maybe you were just going for the comments? welp, I would say that I like the pink background and the softness... even the wrinklyness of the fabric would be ok to me if she weren't pushing it around with her body (feet, arms, etc) does that make sense? if not, let me know, I'll try to clarify. I like the framing, at least knowing that this was intended as a portrait, not a DPC pic, you might try the third line thing, but sometimes I think that rule is over-rated. also, that necklace looks familiar to me and I'm guessing it had meaning to her and that she probably doesn't take it off or at least especially isn't going to take it off for pictures, I think it looks finel

Other than that, she's very pretty and I think that this shoot of yours turned out pretty good.

Nice pic, good focus and color...but I do not get the sense of empty room. Hey I have seen this...LeRoy? What is this doing here?

It looks like it's not on topic, it dosnt show the empty room. Though the picture is nicely procesed, I wouldn't make it so soft (too much neat image?).

More studio than room?

Nice portrait, just doesn't fit challenge very well IMHO

Well, this is a real stretch for an empty room challenge. I have to say that this one lost me for this particular challenge. Beyond that, the blur effect is a hair too strong, and the large shadow cast by her right breast is distracting. Very nice exposure and tones, though. Nice shot for a different challenge.

This could be anywhere.....

Appears to be a studio type shot with no connection to an Empty Room.

nice glamour shot

Doesn't look like an empty room at all.

Edit: Bumping up because I like the postprocessing and the look of this image and there not many great entries, 7

Lovely!

the image and concept is good, but the focus is a little soft. She is a lovely model btw ... but I think that if you look again the shadow below her breast is a bit unflattering .... and only emphasises soze ... if you know what I mean. :)

There is no indication that this is an empty room at all - just a studio shot against a background.

I don̢۪t get the since of any empty room in your shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Not seeing the empty room, just a wrinkly pink sheet with a cute model. I must say the first thing my eye focused on was the necklace hanging down, if you want to shoot nice portraits little details like that have to be considered, I think the viewer's eye should be drawn to their eyes and face first.

This challengge required an empty room - no evidence of that here. The model should take up less space - using a thirds line - of the frame and the room needs to be shown.

Where's the empty room?

Hey. . .I just saw this pretty girl in the recently uploaded photos :) Now I get a chance to actually bless this awesome photo with a high score. Great job. I really like her against those soft pinks!

Very nice studio shot and beautiful model. Unfortunately doesn̢۪t convey empty room for me. Just 5 and good luck.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Pretty model. I like the glamour filter this appears to have had applied. I haven't shot many studio shots, but from what I have done it took a lot of space - so I am gonna assume the room you set up in was empty.

How big is the room...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/05/2006 10:27:16 AM
Nice portrait but doesn't really follow the definition of empty room.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/05/2006 06:16:30 AM
Too smooth for my taste, I like to see the skin texture. I don't see an empty room, I only see what I assume is a bed or something alike.

Nice soft portrait but this has no sense of empty room to me. I'm not crazy about the pink fabric. The lighting is nice. The perspective is good.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/05/2006 03:25:02 AM
This might have been taken in an empty room, but it has more of a studio feel to it, and doesnt really convey the theme. I like the soft focus you used in this portrait though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
06/04/2006 11:02:02 PM
it's a nice portrait, but I can't see how it meets the challenge...
