Good idea, well done in general, though I would have liked it better without the door handles (with the wood, but a place without handles.

The yellow cast makes me wonder if your white balance was correctly set...

I think this deserves a 10. Why?
1. A female body part always grabs my attention (I'm a guy, live with it)
2. The parallel lines of the her body and shadow are really interesting.
3. The 2 handles draw the eye to the other parallel lines mentioned in 2.
Great image.

Not really parallel lines but would have worked well for curved lines.

I like the simplicity of this image. Nice lighting too.

So the parallel is suposed to be the edge of the shadow and the edge of her body, right? It's a nice shot with good colors and tones, but I don't think everyone's going to see the parallel lines or agree that they are 'parallel' and you will be marked down for not meeting the chllenge. Too bad, good shot although the door handle doesn't do anything for me.

I think its a great shot...great parallel lines with the girl and the shadow....but I am not sure I like the door handle and lock too much...still a nice photo.

I see the parellel lines, but they aren't the strength of the image

Nice. I like the effect of the handle and lock.

Parallel lines don't seem to be the main theme here. But then you probably expected this type of comment!

I almost missed the parallel line in the curve of the shadow and waist. The door handles don't do it for me though - not enough parallel there to qualify, therefore distracting.

Is the door knob relevant? Unless you mean the color match...

Very nice. Only the shadows bother me somewhat. Perhaps they should be a lttle softer. Otherwise well done with lines. An 8 from me.

nice, nice composition. However, not the one that better fits the challenge.

Cool shot, not the same old torso and violin or whatever shot - love the textures and warm colors, and of course the framing. - 9

Interesting representetion of parallelism, imo a different more contrasting background would gave it more strong.

Those are some interesting lines - I like that the two lines you're presenting us with are parallel but not straight. Also like the inclusion of the door handle to add an extra point of interest though it's a particularly ugly plasticy handle. I nice modern chrome one would have looked great against the skin and wood. Quality of image isn't too good and colour seems overly orange. But I do like the image content and idea.

nice image but suffers since the tie to the challenge is so tenuous. still i like the way you balanced the curve with thw handle and thumb lock, centering the shadow make for a strong graphic.

And the parallel lines ?

This has really warm colours. I'm giving it a 10 for composition and overall effect.

Excellent Period

Lovely photo. The parallel lines of the door knob and deadbolt are quite a contrast to the curves of the female form. Very nice composition.

Nice picture, but I feel it's off-topic. Also, I would have a different lighting setup.
