I think this might be the last in this series, but I will get back to more black and white nudes soon. Anyway I hope you like this one . It was taken at the same time as the previous two using T-max 3200 and an 18mm lens in my little studio.

Her appendages have the same effect as roots growing out from the base of a tree. Your combination of wide angle and stark black & white makes this an astounding photo. Great framing too !

Wow! Very creative and disturbing yet beautiful effect.

Brilliant. Bravo.

fantastic. good luck.

somewhat surreal effect achieved here through the use of the wide angle lens. I like the distorted perspective you've got going on and the contrast between her body and the rest of the image field is lovely.

Excellent. Love the effect of the wide angle. Tell me... how'd you get the image to that size?

@Carol: The wide agle lens distorts things by making things close to the lens look larger and wider and things further from the lens look smaller and further away. Is that what you mean ?
No. :) I mean the size of the photo on the screen. I set mine to 800px but they are too large for the screen to be viewed properly. The whole of this shot of yours can be seen at once. See what I mean?

@Carol: OIC. On photoshop I change the size to about 520 I think.
I love this shot. Stunning.

Nice job. You may want to flag it as nudity though. Aminus3 has a new check box in the image-upload section that you can check if the photo is inappropriate for those under 16. This photo is ok in my opinion. Again... nice job.

This is entrancing. She seems to go on for miles and miles. Reminds me of one of Dali's melting watches. I'd love to see more of these.

Interesting and creative series.

Thank you, Damon! I was trying to think of what this reminded me of! A very Dali-esque effect.
