Libby - Untitle Nude

Working again with Libby this past weekend: we're both quite happy with this one. I'm going to try a higher contrast print when I get the chance to print again, but I can't wait to hear your thoughts.

This print is on Buxton paper which is slightly colder than my usual Arches Platine, and it's got a rougher surface which makes scanning harder. But it's also got a certain sensuousness that I've yet to see on another paper.

As usual I'm very interested in your opinions about composition, emotional content, or anything else that grabs you. Thanks in advance.

Truly wonderful. I just love when the images are almost single-colored.
I also love her fingernails. I don't know why but nice-looking fingernails are very feminine (sp).

I must have missed your older photos, but I will look for them and I can just hope they are as good as this one.

Thanks for sharing,

The contrast is just right- very magical.
her pearl earring is for me the central point of the composition-great attention to details there!!! And her hands- lovely proportions.
MORE.
