Very nice. Absolutely beautiful.

One of the best barely clad vagina images I've seen in a while.

What did you shoot this with? What lens? That is incredibly shallow DOF. Did you blur or anything in PS? I'm just wondering how both of the legs are so smooth and the middrift is not.

I am not trying to detract from the picture nor to insult, I'm just very curious about how you shot this since I am moving into shooting some figure work soon and this is what I'm seeing in my mind right now.

Lemme see if I can answer your q's and not sound like a dork. I'm glad you like the pic. I shot it with a nikon d70, can't remember the settings offhand but I think, 1/30th fstop 3.5, shot with a 18-70mm 3.5 fstop lens. The stop's not all that low but it was enough. I just focused right on her crotch and everything else fell away. I edited her leg so you couldnt see a tat, but that's it.

Thanks.

I was figuring something smaller than 3.5 but it turned out really great. I wasn't sure if it was film or digital.

RavenMacabre In reply to reddhedds [2005-09-12 03:01:39 +0000 UTC]

I brushed a tatoo off her leg but the rest is dof.

maybe I'm just blanking out but what is dof?

RavenMacabre In reply to reddhedds [2005-09-12 03:14:58 +0000 UTC]

depth of field, with the lowest fstop I was using, it was quite a bit, hence the focus center right on her crotch.

The curves here are amazing... even more how the light seems to highen the sensuality of it.

Fills my soul with lonelyness too.

good job, you took a poorly composed photo of a barely clad vagina.

Great shot with a great use of light and shadows.

There is one thing though, it appears that there is a visible 'blur' line on the length of the near leg where the light starts to roll to shadow. It may just be the LCD on my laptop though. The belly is so crisp, but both legs look like they've been softened considerably.

RavenMacabre In reply to MichaelLaird [2005-09-11 17:04:54 +0000 UTC]

I that would be the very shallow depth of field. The room was very dim, so I pumped up the ISO to 1600 , brought the f stop all the way down and shot at like 1/30th

MichaelLaird In reply to RavenMacabre [2005-09-11 17:31:27 +0000 UTC]

It was the LCD on my laptop that caused it to look 'funky'. I knew it had a shallow dof, but there was this line running along the leg that just looked 'weird'. I took a look at it on a good crt monitor and the line wasn't there.

In any case, it's still a great shot!!

ah I need a good crt monitor, mine's like 6 years old so I have to pump up the gamma to approach anything near what most of you see. sucks being po

Your work is always beautiful, but this to me is a stand out image, well done on your use of light.

some remarkable lines there Raven. I does definately inspire lonliness and a sense of beauty that is detatched.
The smudge towards the hip on the front leg seems to disrupt the smooth lines though.
It is a beautiful peice.

RavenMacabre In reply to Mason-Rose [2005-09-11 01:28:14 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for liking it. If you're talking about the weird shadow on her left leg, yeah it does disrupt the flow of things but that's the human body, it's never totally perfect.
