gotta love how much attention a photo of a nipple gets vs other images...

Click to expand...

I was thinking this would happen, wonder if this means my work is no longer "unremarkable" as one person said, guess all it took was a nipple haha

The nipple had nothing to do with it, on my end; the first look that I had of the image was on my phone, where it was shown at .25" x .375"...and at that size, all you can see is basic composition and tonality. Those two elements are what grabbed my attention, and if you back up and look at the image from really far away you'll see what I mean. When I clicked on it to see what it was at a larger size, my brain said "Oh, it's a nude...huh..." and when the image DIDN'T FALL APART after that revelation, it dawned on me that I was looking at - in my opinion - a rare, well-done nude. I figured that the tones and arrangement were comment-worthy. With all that said, the Nipple Factor (that's a term, now) will get a lot of attention, and we all know why. I'm not arguing this...I'm just saying that it's a nice image (again, opinion) regardless of one's subjective impressions of the content.

Thanks, a very well thought out and thorough compliment and I appreciate it :smile:
