Hi members - feel free to critique any aspect of this image.

Just curious, did I need to put a 'slight nudity warning' in the thread title?

Thx!

You gotta be kidding me, Marko .... you put the "bra warning" up? This works for me just the way it is ... Love the way the softness of the boobs competes with the hardness off the brick .... Boobs win

An interesting window to be sure. I didn't realize it was a warning, I thought it was an invitation :)

Since it's a range there will always be someone who has an issue with it but I don't think it was necessary here. Everything is covered up!

It's a nice shot but I have a bit of a problem with a photo of a photo. I realize there's a little more than that here but that's essentially what it is. I have avoided taking shots like this because I feel it's a bit wrong. That being said, I've photographed statues and such which is the same thing so I'm really just confused. :confused:

It's a very interesting point Iggy. I didn't think of it when I made the shot but in this case I don't feel that I just copied the photograph or used it unethically.
For one, I cropped out the model's entire face in camera. Then the bricks were added in with the wording on the door which imo, makes the shot 'my own'. There are plenty of iconic images (one that comes to mind quickly is Sidelong Glance by doisneau (http://www.photography.ca/fine-art-photographers/masters/doisneau/)) that use posters or photographs or paintings or sculpture as a part of another image.

but it's a VERY interesting discussion.

Them are some tig 'ol bitties, Marko. I like it...them...whatever. The addition of a spectator standing in awe would be a plus.

And just to be clear. I wasn't suggesting you used the image unethically or "just copied" it and I don't get the feeling that you felt that way but I want to make sure that anyone else reading the thread understands that as well.

It is an interesting discussion point though. Maybe I'll start a separate thread on the topic.
