I absolutely adored your entry. It immediately hit me with a sense of erotica, but with class. Her face is immaterial imo. The sensual slope of clothing over her rear and the single perfect pear shaped breast compliment each other. My only 10 and I'm sorry you missed out on a ribbon.

This was my absolute favourite, hands down.

Personally, I disagree with the comments wanting to see more of her face. Naturally we look at faces first and foremost, so I like being able to enjoy the great details of a beautiful form without my eyes being pulled away to the face.

Nicely done, I like the lighting and the mystery of this image.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I love the classic simple beauty of this shot. The black of the background and skirt is doing some strange pixellation on my monitor though. Not sure what that is. Still, a great shot.

Blue from me. Title says it all. ?Too much sharpening along the cloth in my view, still a 8. Good luck.

perfect composition pose and light. well done
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/30/2009 12:48:45 AM
Oops! This could have been a great picture: lighting, composition, pose, tonality... are all very OK. But the edgy transitions in the backgound and dress ruin the shot completely imo. I guess something went wrong during post processing or conversion?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very beautiful.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/29/2009 04:14:55 AM
Very apt title. Love the shot though I think the lighting across the back should be a little lower. Still a 9 in my books though!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Elegant, tasteful, superb lighting, lovely curves.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Elegant is right. Beautifully done, especially the touch of soft focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/28/2009 12:51:56 PM
Elegance indeed, profesionally styled. Beautiful body, incredibly lit. I love how the dress fades into the black background, yet there isn't an over-exposed spot in the photo.

Back to bump this up!

Wow. Wat a backlighting!! 9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/26/2009 07:37:34 PM
This would be better if your model had turned her head a bit so you could get more of a profile of her face.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/26/2009 04:49:06 PM
Nicely done, very good!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/25/2009 09:53:08 PM
This is as the title implies...elegant. Nicely done. I would perhaps have liked to see a bit more detail in the black drape. Very pretty shot.

Tastefully done, and I'm really liking the abrupt disappearance into the fabric that is only oh so subtly hinted at. The B&W conversion is masterful.
