Score 7.5/10 From the Score Me! BW-group
I like the rich blacks and the contrast, and the bracelet stands out well. The knee being cut off at the top is a little distracting, and for me slightly kncks the picture off balance. Nice photo though!

interesting, but the post-processing is not ideal. The passage from the leg to the blackened background is too harsh, try the retouche brush.

To me the bracelets are disturbing in this photo. Still, a nice effort trying to make a different sort of posing-picture.

I like the gloves. Normally your legs would be covered whilst your arms are bare, so I think it's effective.

Interesting composition and good choise to change it into B&W. Why didn't you captured whole personage? I think it would look a bit better, however now it grabs eye too!

seem really minimalist capture, i like very much the contrast and the tones... i don't agree with sniper_88 the whole figure would cause a loose of details.

Great contrast! Great Ideia! The compositions and the tones are beautiful! The criativity, its a criativity shot, but I'm not sure about it all...
How did you do the background?? It's studio photo?

If there is possible, send me your opinion in some of my photos in flickr.

pieceoflace says:

Thank you Christhian...as for it being a studio photo, no it's not. It was done in our home using ambient natural light through east windows on an overcast day. The background includes black satin material, with the dull side up, covering the bench. The background itself is black felt material with a little burning during post processing to remove any evidence of it. I hope this answers your question.

I think it's a cool shot that doesn't need the rest of the figure. I like the gloves... not really sure why but I think they add to it. Nice legs as well.

I love the contrast this photo has. The black gloves, the almost white legs and the silver bracelet all tie together. I love it.
Normally this isn't my type of shot. But this really is a well composed, well thought through (I think) shot. :):)

pieceoflace says:

Thank you J-Fish and Princess Rose...I'm pleased you both like this, and so you'll know Princess Rose it was well thought through. Both when staging and taking the shot, and during post processing. Thank you again...and I hope you both have a nice Easter Holiday.

I really like this picture, the different shade of black works great ! These are also very nice legs ! And of course the silver bracelets gives the details that photo needs !

I'm just new in this group but have been around photography for about 40 years. It's a minor thing, but the little finger on the right hand makes the right leg appear as if a piece is cut out. I would have moved the finger further toward the front of the leg. I would also have moved her butt just a little bit further onto the posing bench. That's just a personal thing with me however. I don't score other people's work and I think, over all, this is a good print. I would also have used a reflector below her left leg.

What lovely long legs you have! The gloves add a velvety cat-like feel for me, very sensuous.

I like but as a thought perhaps some high heels may have been sexier?

pieceoflace says:

Thank you Clinton...and high heels would work also, but as with most things it's a matter of personal preference. And so you won't get into trouble with the group's administrator, you need to comment on the first five photos immediately to the right of yours.

This B/W came out really good! I think I saw a color version of it, but this one has much more appeal.
