Description I really didn't know whether to put this in artistic nude or not but since I'm not keen on having my pics removed I just decided to play safe

Model: Julia

----------

Sorry about the watermark ppl but sadly it's the only way to protect a picture in a decent way.

just curious

The reason is the reflection in the sunglasses..

As I said, I wasn't sure if it's necessary..

I personally think the crop is more effective with a noodle thin black boarder, gives it good depth.

Thanks again Andrew!
I'm not _strictly_ against frames but unless I'm finishing some landscapes or nature pics, I don't like them..
It's just too much of a distraction and a good photography doesn't need phony glorifications anyway. (not meaning too say this is a good photography )

..just my 2 cents

I actually liked the lighting the way it is. It came out pretty authentic and created some nice shadows.. What exactly do you not like about it?

I just think that a small black frame makes the crop more effective, I tried it myself and thought it improved, I've done a lot of darkroom stuff, and I find that a good frame really seals the magic, stops it from leaking out and stuff, otherwise if you hold it wrong it can slide off the page.

I just think it's a bit harsh on her forehead and right eye and that bit of hair, it actually appears to blow out some of the detail a bit, and kinda seems to prohibit the eyes from wondering around the image.
't'sal, really nice image though.

Woah that's subtle, and totally creative, I've never seen anything quite like this.
Brilliant work, lighting on her face could be a bit better in my opinion, but that's just me.
