i like this. the lighting is really cool, even though it is dark. her body against the textury wall looks really cool too. and her looking to the right makes you focus on the wall as well rather just her alone. i like her pose, and that its kind of got that 'dark' atmosphere to it.

I like this, it's very human. I especially like the red of her lips and her athletic build. Refreshing.

Gorgeous! Love the composition, the textures and subtle colours in it contrast with each other to create a wonderful balance... the negative space is great and her ruby red lips are like the cherry on the cake

The focus and where the model is positioned, the background, lighting... The words that come into my head sound like "this was very well thought out or a very, VERY lucky shot."

Not to mention a completely wonderful model.

Thank you, this is an amazing photograph.

Perhaps creating a duller skin tone would work? Unless you are preserving its sentuality, in which case her face is highly distinguishable, sad and uninterested. I do agree that it is a touch too dark.

Great work Martini

This is a beautiful work. As said by others, it is so unusual to see a nude done so darkly. Perhaps this could be a forerunner to a new genre? Dark Nudes?

Awesome image. Congrats on the DD.

Very angelic, yet so like a gargoyle. Very beautiful all together - and the make-up is a nice touch.

RavenMistress [2007-03-18 20:57:31 +0000 UTC]

It's beautiful, wild, dark with a hint of feral to it. It brings to mind the words 'hunter' and 'pack'. In short, I love it!

Black-Crusader [2007-03-18 20:14:09 +0000 UTC]

love the effect, and the background and lighting creates such a good ambiance that coupled with the pose and the grungey colours just pulls the mind right into the endless depths of possibility this pic creates for the imagination

Congrats on the DD and well deserved!

She reminds me of the actress in the movie, "V for Vendetta"...after the girl shaved her head

First thought that comes to mind: 1984.

Maybe it should be V for Vendetta but 84 came first and will come again.

Great work!

As wonderful as it is (i mean that btw), i would've faved it if it wasn't so dark. Just a tad lighter would do the trick for me, but meh... what do i know heh.
