 Last minute submission. Don't have high hopes for this and it's not what I would have shot had I planned a shot. Instead I just went through my shots from the week and this was the only one with any lingerie in it.

Okay, so I'm alittle late on the comment... but I'm 5 glasses of wine in, and I remember voting on this shot... It totally reminded me of the Black crows album cover, Amorica

Anyway... I thought it was a very clever shot... Even with the pubes...LOL.... Well done!

Pubic hair like that is sexy!
Her fingers are beautiful, too. Well done on a daring image.
 04/22/2010 04:48:21 AM
Without the hair it would've been just a boring stock photo. Well done man!

OMG what the heck is wrong with the hairs? Prudes for pubes. Nothing wrong with hair in the first place, but in american culture this could count as tongue-in-cheek meets drop-dead-sexy. I can see how some people cold be offended by the flag concept, but this IS art, don'tcha know. I Love It (picture, pubes, and my country!). by the way, anybody notice the hair in #10? or the suggestion of self-love? or just didn't want to admit you tried to look?

Wow, look at all those 1s, 2s and 3s. Not the first time I've seen voters freak over some body hair! 18th isn't bad but this should have scored higher.

MonsterPhotography was correct. This was intended to be a take-off on the album cover "Amorica" by the Black Crowes.

The hair was intentional, and I was shocked by the number of negative comments about it.

without those hair, this would have been a killer shot.

Hairy is scary!, but I see the intention seeing that the nails are so well done - Do it for the country I suppose.

Not bad...but why didn't you get rid of that pubic hear???? This ruins the complete picture. You did it on purpose? To me it doesn't work, at all. Sorry.

I like most of the elements on this picture, the only thing I'm not so fond of is the hair showing there, I think it's matter of personal preference, other than that nice composition and colors!

Well composed and nice soft lighting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2010 05:05:00 PM
nice shot. I think the hairs weaken the shot

 04/15/2010 03:21:55 PM
Good lighting and all but what's up with the hair!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/15/2010 09:30:55 AM
Risquée to show the pubes... :-)

 04/15/2010 04:18:15 AM
LOL - great picture 7/10
 04/15/2010 01:04:51 AM
Nice lighting and PP, could have tucked the erm bush in a bit...

 04/14/2010 08:23:00 PM
I would salute that right back!
 04/14/2010 08:03:51 PM
The photography is well done. The colors and the lighting really work well. I have voted on those. I don't care for the hair (posing), but I have not voted on that detail.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Technically a good shot, nice composition, perspective and lighting. Personally don't like the little bit of hair sticking out, but that's just me!

Nice spin off of the black crowes album cover "Amorica" I bet you thought know one woul notice lol!

That aside I really like it. I would have cropped the top off to just under her belly button. Really would help to keep the eye in the are you want it.

Love the delicate placement of hand. It just adds on perfectly to the photo. And yes... I salute thee! 9.

Not diggin' the pubes hanging out over the top.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/14/2010 05:48:25 AM
Would be more tasteful without the hair, good shot tho, very sharp, one of the best in this challenge

Having served 20 years in the Navy I find the use of the American Flag as undies very distasteful. The photo would have been much better without the hair at the top.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/14/2010 04:44:54 AM
And I salute her....The hair coming out of the top is a little distracting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/14/2010 04:27:51 AM
Nice photo, but I don't really care for the hair sticking out the top. Just a personal preference.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/14/2010 01:03:33 AM
you couldve shaved!

 04/13/2010 11:05:46 PM
