A beautiful abstract photo, Melanie! Very artistic! Well done!

Melanie, I like everything about this image (yeah, OK, it took me long enough to say so :-) It is soft and sensual, very open to my imagination. Lovely piece. I'd like to see you descibe how you accomplished the image, but as always, it's the finished product which speaks to viewers and this lovely piece speaks ever so eloquently. -Michael P.S. Love the framing, it finishes off the image nicely.

Thank you everyone for your comments. --Melanie (mlynn)

definitely abstract. Sorta minimal. I like it as a photo but I'm not sure about the frame that is wider on the sides...

Beautiful image, Mlynn. If I didnt' know it was a photograph, I might have mistaken this for a charcoal drawaing ;-) I like it very much. Markjay

Personally, I wouldn't have rotated it. I think it is a nice image in a horizontal orientation, and my preference is to do very little to alter an image. But that's just me. Either way is compelling. bee1000

Hmmm, do you mean turn it around as in have the open space on the other side? If the 'nude' had been naturally lying face up, I probably would have left it horizontal; but it was lying face down, and not as noticeable. I printed the image to see how it looked in print, and found I liked the vertical orientation better-- so I rotated it. As shot, there was only ground on the other side of the 'shape', not sky. I considered adding my own sky to it-- but wasn't sure I could do it without it being obvious. --Melanie

Oh,OkayI would have turned it around,at first I could not make head or tail out of this,but now it looks like fog or mist or maybe a reclining nude standing . eric

Thank you both. Dorys, there were some interesting, and delicate, cloud on cloud formations here this morning. Of course, by the time I got my camera outside, they were mostly gone--shortly after this it was flat grey. I rotated the image counter clockwise to bring more attention to the 'form'. Lonnit--interesting take. I saw the nude form, but not the rigidity... --Melanie

This is wonderful. I'd be interested in a description of what it is and how you did it. Looks like smoke. dorys

Very interesting. "She" should seem so soft and sensuous, yet "her" body language is so rigid and tight. I guess "she" is uncomfotable being nude in front of the camera. Very nice. :) ~ Lonnit
