Something a little different from what you're used to seeing from me. It's not often I get all artsy and try new lighting setups considering I dont have very much space to work, but I managed to come up with some interesting results. This was easily the best of the batch, so here it is. Critique away!

This.

I love playing with lighting just getting into lighting the human form in different ways. I'm guessing a single light with a grid on it? Either way, wonderfully low key and the nice contrast on the b/w you nailed it bro!

Great shot! I love these types of artistic B&W Nudes... they are def my favorite. I would just suggest blacking out that bit of the background showing under her back and below her. Give the illusion of an infinite background.

Posted by Ashes in the Snow I would just suggest blacking out that bit of the background showing under her back and below her. Give the illusion of an infinite background.

While editing, I actually did remove it, but I kept looking at it, thinking it looked stranger without it after. I tried just cropping it out, but then I lost too much of her leg for my liking. I did however remove her arm that was visible.

quality stuff dude. this one's a keeper.

LOVE the B&W shots. You did a really good job of getting her into the right position to accent the swell of her tummy and at the same time leave her breasts sitting naturally.

Well done!

As was said, I too would suggest nothing but blackness behind and below her.

You should do more of these.
