Her eye is very powerful and I love that the hair is covering the other, It gives her an air of mystery and power. There are only two critiques, Her face is perfect, but if she colour have kept all angels but raised her head to reveal her neck it would have made all the difference (just to not though, the photograph is just gorgeous either way, just trying to give helpful crits )

The other critique is her hands. The arms seem great, but the hands just feel like they're laying there. Her right hand is fine, but the left hand just feels limp.

Her legs are wonderful, I love the shapes and the way the entire body moves the eye!

The lightening is wonderful and she's caught it too making it all work really well.

Dats all I got great job to both of you!

thanks for the critique! i do tend to avoid idle hands, and had planned on her holding a cigarette. unfortunately though the lab monitor notified me that smoking was not permitted in the studio, so we made do without props.

hmmm, that definitely would have been best. You could have tried having her hold and un-lit cigarette and photoshoped the light but deadily smokey carcinogens in after?

hehe, I'm glad your okay with the critiques though I do really look and try to think about it with your stuff. It's just so beautiful and inspiring

I've always kinda wanted to model, but I'm plus size and I'm a good crit, but I'd probably flop in front of a camera lol! Either that or break the lens

I'll just stick with cutting animals open for the purpose of making them better in the end

now, in my experience, the people who worry they'll do badly in front of the camera do beautifully once they relax. no matter how many times someone has posed for a photographer, the second they begin to feel tense and nervous it shows. it's pretty rare that someone can hide it, unless they take that nervous energy and transform it into creative tension.

by the way, i have a lot of respect for the type of work you're doing. it takes a courageous and caring person to do that sort of thing.

haha, thank-you very much but I'm still learning currently. Takes 8 years of school before you get your certification. I think we're the same though, you find the overall body beautiful for it's shapes, curves, and movements. I find the overall body beautiful inside and out for how amazingly and quickly it functions and responds! how even cholesterol (the thing we think is sooo bad) is vital to proper functioning. Same love on different levels.

as for being nervous, I don't know that I would be 'nervous' per se. but I'm an average north American size 9-12 girl (mind, there is a lower and upper range, biology is never one size but rather a range), and i love "plus-sized" models, they should be the ideal, but they shouldn't be called plus sized. I know I was in hospital with pneumonia for 2 weeks and if i hadn't had a little extra i would still be in there because I wasn't able to eat for about 4 days.

MY GOD i ramble haha!

lol nah you're fine! I'm glad you got over the pneumonia. I've been lucky enough to never have it, but I imagine it's awful.
