LoL fun with Photoshop! It's always tough separating the model from the background--do please take a look at my entry in the upcoming Digital Photo contest and let me know if I pulled it off...
You and shadows (and gorgeous women) work well together. Another excellent capture!
May I be nosy and ask (no, not for her number) how you approached the lighting here?
Thanks for sharing! ~Diz ~~~~~~~~~ This was one strobe with just the 70-degree reflector. Nothing to soften the light as I wanted these very hard shadows.
Okay, I LIKE what the shadows are doing here. And the swell of her left breast works magic, as does her expression. Left thigh where it sinks into the chair looks a smidge odd, but who cares?
LoL okay, can see panties (or shopped-in whiteness) here. But this image is absolutely friggin' hot! (er, pardon the technobabble)
I think that lamp detracts a bit, and yes, her hair could stand a bit of light to separate her from the background, but that's being absurdly picky.
That pose is the stuff of dreams.

~~~ No Photoshop - those are indeed her panties. We had agreed she would pose in a totally languorous fashion, as if she didn't care WHO was looking. ..and yeah, it's pretty damn HOT. ;)
Naw, I disagree. As much as I love nudity ( ! ) the drape-y red dress really accentuates her femininity and makes the shot unique. I prefer this angle to the previous--her tilted chin adds a lot. Great capture!
Wow, you handled the lighting here expertly: one can't tell whether or not she's got underwear on no matter HOW carefully one examines the photo (at least on my computer).
Not sure if I'd have cropped of the top of her head, though.
