To be honest, if this forum only has one or two people who will outwardly offer criticism to the images (and even then they [you] argue semantics over aesthetics) it's really not worth me posting anything at all in the future.
You can have your cake. I'll take my ball and go home.
I enjoy a good debate, and I think this discussion is at least as meaningful as a lot of "Nice shot" posts, which add little of value beyond rudimentary approval. I'll never understand why some people insist that others refrain from discussions, however passionate, because it upsets them somehow. How difficult is it to pass over a post? Scroll down to the next image if you don't want to participate in a discussion. If you just want to see unclothed women, this thread is not a very rich resource, relatively speaking.
I hesitate to post to a thread that I have not contributed to pictorially speaking; but anyway. For those who have posted images of nudes, I don't understand some of the disclaimers. Do you think your image is artistic, or some other category? If pornographic, probably some better sites available where you might even make some money. Documentary as in some type of series such as prostitution in Nevada, does it work as a series? If so, maybe a journalistic site might be better. If not porn nor a documentary, then I'd suggest that you do consider your image artistic; and therefore should be open to critiques. Hopefully, they will be meaningful.

As far as I am concerned, only Ash has standing in this discussion. His photo is the only contribution of any substance to the discussion. Those who have critiqued are simply voyeurs. Their opinions are marginally useful, mostly dispensable.
Incidentally, Simon, I am mesmerized by your architectural photos.

Dang -- scan does not do this justice -- and I don't have photoshop. If I find the carbon print of this, I'll scan that -- beautiful print, if I must say so myself as it handles the contrast wonderfully.
