| This photo really stands out. I love the b@w, the look on the face, the shadow across her face, the shine on her hair, the tastefulness of the body and nudity, the black background. I think you get the picture (excuse pun) 10 from me. |

| You're so lucky to have a pregnant model to work with.. I think that nudes of pregnancy are some of the most beautiful on the planet, and you've done a wonderful job capturing your model. I think a touch more light to highlight her face would have been a bonus, but this is a great shot. |

| A very lovely photo. I wish her face were lit a bit more, but otherwise, very nice. I like how the light is on her belly, and I like the overall softness of the photo. Angle and framing are nice. I wonder how it would look with her looking forwards. Nothing distracting inthe background. Overall very nice. ~Heather~ |

| A classic shot, and beautifully done. I'm not sure there's anything more beautiful than a pregnant woman. I'm not 100% sold on the expression on her face... I think maybe something more serene with downcast eyes. Or maybe just pushing that strand of hair back that casts a shadow on her face. That's being highly critical though. It's a great image with high marks from me. Good luck! |

| nice soft light to emphasise her contours, also on her back. Not sure whether she should be looking away, I would rather expect a tender look downwards (although that would it make a more standard image). |

| Lovely shot, the skin tones are very nice. I think the face needs some fill-in light though... the shadows make the expression look a bit severe, which is not what you want in a pregnant portrait! The door behind looks like it could do with some straightening in PS. |

| Very good photo, I like the background a lot and how you've burned it, good use of lights, well done. Maybe if the model would have looked a bit more towards to the light, bringing more light to the face of the model, would have improved it, but I'm not sure, it could then maybe just take to much of attention to the face. This is definately one of the best in this challenge, maybe even a ribbon photo imo. |

Thanks for submitting a shot that wasn't for the sake of the challenge, and wasn't gratuitous and lame. Perfect lighting for a wonderfully candid nude. |

| Nicely done. The lighting is very nice. I like the title chose, but the image has more of a mysterious feel to me with the way she is in the dark and peering over her shoulder. I think the image is straight, but the board behind her back may be crooked and it's making the images feel as though it's tipping to the right. It's probably just me, though. :-) Beautiful model. What a great image to add to the baby book. |

| An absolutely great entry. Your model is stunning, and I love the choice of BW and background. The soft lighting is very effective, especially on her face, where the look is positively otherworldly! The position of her left arm looks a little forced and posed (pushing the right breast a little?), but the overall impact is very powerful. Great job!! |

| Wonderful shot! I love the soft, fine lighting on her, the most important body parts highlighted. Really expressive, a tasty representation of the beauties of pregnancy! I also love the environment. Maybe her expression is a little bit scared, and due to the title she looks a bit impatient, but if it was on purpose, you got the effect well! |

A nice shoot here overall.
I think the idea and lighting is great - her hand position equally as good. The things that let this image down is the face position and softness. To me she looks very uncomfortable bending her neck like that - it's putting a strain which shows in her face. If she was in perfect profile I feel this would be much stringer composition wise.
Apart from that, i do like it, and I like the edge burning bringing your eyes into the middle.
