    Yuri,

    It must be difficult having all these beautiful woman chasing you around all the time, and asking you to photograph them. I don't know how you put up with it!

    Great shots! I would have to get a jaw strap to keep my jaw from falling from the poses :)

    2, 4 & 6 are my favs.

    Any more?

    Yes, humor! (I open each of his posts as though presents under the tree and I'm surely not alone.) Great work Yuri.

    I love the lighting in #1, very nice pose and composition.

    I really like her body positioning in #2 but the big white column I find quite competitive with her.

    Maybe it's because I'm not a guy....but I just don't get what she's doing in #3, besides showing her hind end off....the expression and pose I don't find sexy or elegant, but I do like the monotone conversion.

    4 is quite lovely and 5 is beautiful too...really shows off her gorgeous skin...wow! 7 is also a winner, the skin and eyes are both so luminous.

    Beautiful girl!

    Lynn,

    I am a guy, and I don't care for 3 that much either, particularly the garter belt tags hanging out of the very short skirt. Not a prude, mind you, but just do not enjoy the pose or the garmentne_nau.gif

    The rest of the images I enjoy a great deal. I agree that the big white column competes with the subject for my eye.

    Beautiful girl!

    Thank you for your critique and comments!

    No 3 is a cut of the next photo. It was done to study curves of the composition and directions of the viewer's look.
    I also like the muscle reliefs on her back here. Surely we will continue sessions with her. It was the first one and as I say the first 100 photos can be deleted (the model must trust you and you need some time for this)
    Must say this photo is also cropped.

    Thank you so much again,
    Yuri
