Wonderful. Very affectionate and endearing. Also intriging how the shapes play off each other. Only crit I have is it feels like flare or fog got to it. I like the high key, but would prefer an ever so slightly cleaner tone, richer black.

I agree, I like the echo of her face in the angle of her arms, so the composition is great. I just wish for a little pop in contrast, not much. Rgds, Kal

Wonderfully soft with just a touch of sensuality, well done.

Cheers,
Bill

I may have to reconsider. Looking at it again, I see how much of the intamcy is coming from that soft almost humid tone . It must be perfect in person. Mr. Leake knows what he's doing.

Thanks everyone. I'm not a big fan of high contrast nudes: they lack sensitivity and I find them somehow aggressive. I know that not everyone agrees with me (OK, I'll be honest - almost everyone thinks I'm nuts!), but I love the gentleness and sensuality that a lower contrast print can portray. So thanks for reconsidering Alden...
