...allow me to agree and disagree>> I'm not sure where the line between thinking and thinking too much is drawn but when I first saw your shot, I didn't react with my head... it was only after you asked for an explanation of my original comment that I had to think about what I was feeling, and why I was feeling that way (thank you for asking!)>> also, I'm sorry if I gave the impression that "all I want is more"" nudirty... it's usually quite the opposite... I find most of the "fine art nude" photography boring ((of course there are exceptions)) i.e. lacks imagination, becomes eyecandy and is quickly forgotten (content/substance is sacrificed for that quick hit of sensation)... and that's one thing I appreciated about your shot, is that it allowed/welcomed my imagination to put a context to it (isn't that what makes it art as opposed to photojournalism?)... the fact that it was a simple stretch after a long shoot is irrelevant to me, the viewer...I interpreted it as a moment of ecstacy so it became a moment of ecstacy (even as I write this last thought, I'm not sure that it's completely accurate>>I'll have to think [...oops] more about it...)... anyway, what I'm trying to say is that the amount of skin was not an issue... I mentioned the midriff for compositional reasons... for example, if it had been included, that shot would have begun to resemble a cross/crucifix>> I'm not religious, but that would have been an interesting statement... but as it is, I'm not sure what you were wearing (it feels like two seperate pieces, one top on top of another) but that black vinyl necktie(?) just doesn't work for me in that shot>>btw, the way I love how the sleeve clings to your left bicep/upper arm<< so I'm not sure what you mean when you say the "top would be on a tangent"... I do agree that everything doesn't always have to be centred (Rule of Thirds) and it is fun to break out of the photo/frame but I still miss your left elbow(...and how many times have you heard that in your life??)... wow...I'm out of breath... this has been fun,,,sorry if this message is too looooooooooooong...
