 Thanks everyone for your votes and comments. The idea was to make the model look as if she was spinning in the air. With the black background and floor, and the light striking her, it looked as if she was floating. It was a very difficult pose to hold, so she could only hold it for 2-3 seconds before losing her balance, which in a way helped to create a sense of motion.

Interesting pose/capture. I'll be returning to learn what the intention/story of this image is after voting closes. I hope there is one.

Certainly one of the most striking images here, if not the most. Have returned to it over and over and can't really think of anything to say. But I'm very impressed with everything from vision to beauty to execution. It's quite a photo.

An interesting nude shot, surely. The pose looks quite awkward for the model, but is visually interesting. I really like the lighting to show all the definition, and the toning works great.

I find the pale patchy circle behind her quite distracting, otherise this is a nice art nude, interesting pose.

Very intriguing form. The capture does look like she is doing a spin off the high dive too. Can't go wrong with an image like this.

What is she doing?

A great combination of balance and imbalance.

Nice form, and the light combined with her position gives this an embryonic feel.
