Lovely.

Most interesting illustration of the ultimate dichotomy! The monochrome works, as does the contrast between the costumes and skin color of the models. Might have worked better with an African American model, or by putting the dark makeup on the models arms as well (would have ruined the dress, though...) Excellent work. 9

What a great idea! Nicely done. I wish the background wasn't black. I think a nice gray would have been perfect.

Cool shot but a bit bright.

great idea but in my opinion poorly executed, the black is drowned out into he background and the black face for this dot just isn't black enough to really bunch.

Wish I could do that.
The Black on Black though ruins it. Why not a gray background?

Good idea, nearly pulled it off.

This is a cool idea. The brightness of the white cloth is a bit overwhelming, and the blacks disappear into one another. I know it is a picture about contrasts, but I think a bit less would have been better. Having said that I think that the idea is really good, even though it is hard to pull off. Overall I gave you 6.

Very creative indeed

your exposure is a bit out which has made you lose detail in the white. But a very good example all the same.

Would have prefered a square crop, and the toes to be in the frame. Otherwise this is very, very stunning.
