Very nice colors. Was a filter used?

Yes...a polarizer filter was used for this shot.
Cokin!

Thought it might be. Great job. I love how the water spraying off her hair is translucent.

Super cool, and creative and beautiful shot.

beautiful shot!!

Absolutely stunnning.

Yeah I was guessing this one for the win. Congrats!

Congratulations on the First, well deserved.

Congrats...

WOW! That's hot!

Well Done author!

Nicely done! 2 thumbs up!

This image is well within the guides and rules....there is nothing offensive here.

mmm, I wonder who's this might be...................stunning shot, well framed, lit, everything, well done author.

This is for sure eye candy...well done author

This is well posed and the lighting is very well done, the lady has a great bod for sure,but in my opinion this is good artistic photograpy but really not that sexy. nice shot.

She looks fantastic for just having had a baby (I think I recognize that little smile). Or, If I'm wrong, she just looks fantastic. Congrats

Excellent shot... Glockman I'm curious if this is "not really that sexy" then what is?

Kyricom, you are correct that's her Thank-you everyone for the compliments!

Oh, I'm sure if my mother was a member, she'd flag it. She's such a prude...

Glockman, seriously DO NOT AGREE. I guess you just don't get the fetish. (the Tie, the Hat) Just because of those two items and for the way it is posed. The fact you can't see her eyes also adds to the mystery and it's done just on the edge of censorship. It's the hat and tie that are a man's. A lot of men find women who dress up in men's clothes, especially there own, find it really arousing, and definite eye candy! I can recall Playboy doing spreads with the same idea.

Congrats for your second place!

I'm so glad this placed so high. Well done my friend, as always!

Congrats...

Thank you for making photography sexy again!

I KNEW IT!!!

Just for you old buddy

very creative and sexy

well done

Nice one!

Beautiful shot... too bad it's ruined with a Canon.

Ay caramba.....that's hot stuff!!..............great entry author.

I knew this had to be your's

I think we all knew who shot this one. Interesting that the point of focus seems to be on the writing of the camera strap, it certainly draws your eye there. As always, wonderful work with light and shadow!

Now Ray is the focus on the writing or is the focus where your eye would be focusing if there were no strap And thanks for noticing that detail btw I was hoping someone would get that!

Photo goddess...very well done author

And also congrats for your third place!

Definitely well deserved.

Congrats...

Congrats!!

Very nice - a little heavy on the eye shadow (for my tastes)

thank goodness for waterproof make-up, well done.

this is superb!

No filter was used for this shot.
The set up goes like this.
My model is in the shower with the water falling on her face.
A black sheet on the tiles as a b/g.
The make up is professional (kryolan) & waterproof.
An external flash was used.
f:13.
iso 100.
1.5 sec exposure.

Too much blue but the final result has great impact!

personally, I think the blue makeup makes the shot!...........it is a focal point which brings it all together. well done author, great work from you, as usual.

In my opinion, I think it would have looked so much better without any make-up at all. It looks very fake because most woman either take their make-up off before they take a shower if it is waterproof OR it would come right off when the water hit it.
The pose, the black background, the lighting and the water is all great.

very nice details...gl

smooch-a-rama!

lips look really familiar. Lets see if I'm right.

well done

there is only one pair of lips on this site that look like that...............

Angelina Jolie???

LOL I guess this is the last..

I hope not.............

oh yes...perfectly on theme author...well done

very nice!!!

Great one!
