Wow, beautiful. I love the abstract/impressionistic quality. It's good viewing from about 6ft then changes dramatically when you get closer. Very cool.

This is a keeper Thomas. Very well done and a perfect example of the potential benefits of grain and the importance of viewing distance. I love it.

It reminds me of a photo I took probably 30 years ago using 2475-Recording Film. Subject was an aircraft several thousand feet above me in a blank sky. I made a high contrast 20x24 print of a small corner of the 35mm negative. It was just noise until one backed away to about 6 feet from the print. Then, suddenly the airplane appeared. A similar effect is happening with your image but your subject matter and composition are many orders of magnitude more interesting.

Really exceptional, Thomas!

POW ! you hit this one.....

Very beautiful Thomas and this is the Italian superlative of "blindingly gorgeous with a well defined emotional attribute".
I appreciate the important detail of the dark area at the bottom of the image attributing weight to the image.

This, my friend, is one of the most compelling nudes I've ever seen. It gives the slightest hint at the form of the body and it is truely beautiful. Well done.

very well done!!

bravo!

Rocking. This is a great image and raised the bar compared to your original version of this.... Beautiful
