This is really beautiful. A mysterious yet relaxing atmosphere. Great control of exposure time: just the right balance to have a blurred fall and a semitransparent bottom

a very good shot. Indeed you succeeded transferring the opposition of the fragile wood structure and the massive presence of the rocks in the background. The depth of view of the many layers of mountains is just beautiful

Many thanks to all of you

Actually I tried but I felt that the energy of the yellow fabric was really missing

I fully agree! I first supported #10, but indeed #9 and #10 are both so beautiful that it is difficult to choose. And indeed all the finalist are great photos which I wish to see printed in large format, hanging in a wall... congratulations

Model Martina Tosi, natural light from a large window at 3 pm. This is part of a series of shots in which I purposely excluded or defocused the models face, pointing brutally on body shape and highlighting hair even with the choice of lighting.

Great shot! I liked it at a first glance before reading the expiation... but after the explanation I can really feel what you are describing which means it a great piece of art.

Good shot. The PP is also well suited to the composition: it feels like a panting.

Really beautiful! I like the composition and particularly the great emotional impact provided by the sky. I think you have done the right choice pointing a little upwards and including so much

Actually when I started shooting pro and semi-pro models I was surprised that the majority I happened to know had tattoos, often quite extensively covering their bodies. I personally like tattoos on girls (not on myself), but I also though it would been limiting for their job. Nonetheless, based on my experience, tattooed models are the normality, and those with no tattoos are the exception...:confused:

Thank you. The dark shades mostly come from the PP...

Thank you. I totally agree on the qualities of Giorgia as a model.

Thank you. Yes I see some green but none of the pictures had it before uploading... perhaps it is the compression: maybe I should have brought the pictures to the specified final size before uploading instead of having the upload system do the job for me.
