I think it's a great way to accent the shadows and there's nothing wrong with it in the rules. GL author!

For what it's worth, I think it's an excellent theme match and I kind of like the soft effect. You did a great job keeping the focus on the contest theme, staying within the guidelines while creating a very artistic entry. I will not be surprised to see this place. GL!

:lol: well, i do like the shot. however, i feel that your softening has caused it to look a tiny bit oof. i do like the clarity and how it makes the skin look...however, it almost doesn't look realistic.
now..aside from a photography standpoint...i have to be personally picky.
her fingernails needed painted.. not that you notice that right off, but with all the softness in the picture, this ...well, it leaves an unfinished feel to it. A glamour shot should be just that. glamorous. and...chipped up week old fingernail polish isn't glamorous. the bracelets are a bit too much, making the arm look overly bulky.
i like how you have her seated...however, she looks like she's having an issue balancing there. like it was an uncomfortable seating. its all in the body language.

Personally, its one of the better entries. however, i see much that can be improved about it..and since the model is the center of your shot..perhaps focusing on all her little things would do you well.

considering it's supposed to be about a chair, this looks very centered around everything but that!

Very heavily photoshopped. I appreciate creative and artistic uses of the female body, but this is very overtly sexual. Personally, I think it's unfortunate that we live in a society so drawn to that.

Excelent shot author! The b&w was a good touch but id have to agree that it would help to see more chair

I don't deny it doesn't look better with the chair being "invisible". It's just that the contest is about a chair and a person being in the picture. So if you take the chair out, even though technically speaking it's still there but not visible, it doesn't quite fit the theme anymore.

And yes, I like the look of it even with the chair in there.

I think it's a great idea and I don't see anything wrong with it but why didn't you at least shoot the guy from the other side? Shooting directly towards the sun just makes him look a little dark.

This is cool, but the multiple use of the same subject makes it look more like a chop than a panorama (I am NOT saying this is off theme - I'm just talking impressions. Others will obviously disagree)
