Technically very nice, here is what you could do to get much much better votes... If you had your body background, all of them, sky. It is good now, but it could be excellent if you did put sky on your back :) Good job overall :)

  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/05/2007 03:23:11 AM
a tad too centered, otherwise very good shot

great saturation...nice background
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/04/2007 08:36:35 PM
classic bright dpc colors, awesome location, but i think the centered composition is a bit weak, it leaves this cool looking negative space that doesnt really frame you or lead to you
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 12/04/2007 08:24:31 PM
Flamboyant!
