Anastasia Arteyeva. Whole plate tintype. Ross Cabinet #3, f3.5, 10 seconds.

Excellent image, Ed!! Love the unusual composition.

[Harley Goldman]

Agree! Excellent image and beautiful tonal range.

I also agree on both counts. Fine image and beautiful wife.

Thank you very much, Bracan and Harley.

Very interesting image, I do like the lens distortion work that you've done here, I find the shirt a little bit strange, I guess it's just that her pose is very natural like she's taking a more standard pose, but the shirt being see-through and her having such nice breasts would make me think that this would pose a more... I don't know how to say it not sexually lustful but sort of more playfully sexually oriented, or even sort of playfully innocent because she's so just standing there normal, I find it strange that her shirt is see-through, I think that it's almost as if she didn't know it was going to be see-through when taking a shot and the light was surprised that shown through the clothing.

I guess I would say it's not the image or the lighting itself, it's her stance that throws me off

But I still like the image don't get me wrong.

A very interesting color on this one, Bracan. I wonder if the palette has shifted over time or if this is normal for 809. This model, by the way, looks to me like an edgy version of Novak Djokovic.

Beautiful pose and tones, but the hands? I find the hands are distracting, I wonder if you tried cropping them out?
