Description

Flaw(s)—The shoddy carpet, which I plan on taking up next week. I’ll replace it with something dark to better correspond with the wall I’ve painted black. There’s also the fact that my legs aren’t fully in frame, as I intended them to be.

 

Merit(s)—Like that of a stock shot, the aggressive stance could be applied to certain, post-processed settings. I don’t often attempt action shots, & this one turned out fairly well. In full Visual Kei garb, I also like my sense of style in this photo.

Hmm, I think this shot is really awesome, if you cropped out the carpet of course. I love it. ^-^

Are you gonna attack?
I really like how your arms are exposed in this picture and it's an interesting outfit.
You look good in white.

Yes, so you better stand clear.

I'd like to dabble more in the Visual Kei style, even in white.

Intermediate Entries are simply photos I deem better than scraps, but too flawed to be featured in my main gallery.

How unusually to see you in white, hehe, but however - nice outfit, i like it very much. 
And i also like these soft tones, without high contrast. Most of your photos are darker.
Looks nice

The shirt, despite being white, matches the ensemble well. There was minimal editing involved, as I didn't tamper with the contrast at all.

This photo really shows how well defined your arms are. The main thing I usually notice is your hands. I love the pose, very cool and it looks like you are making a fluid motion instead of simply posing.

Many thanks.

I look rather formidable with such a pose.

Your arms look quite pronounced in this photo! The stance, although aggressive, looks more defensive than actually preparing to strike because your legs seem relaxed (I don't even know if that made sense). If that was the effect you wanted to get, it's great!

My arms do indeed have some definition in this shot.

Whether defensive or offensive, the sword is on its way out. If I had any training, I'm sure I could express a possible sword attack better.

Eeeeh it's nice!
Especially how your hair flows, it kind of adds to the motion!

Yeah, my hair seems to wind & cling to my arm.

Thank you for commenting.
