Really really like the first and the last.

In fact the last is exceptional - well conceived.

John, love the first and second images, very nice, although she does get a bit lost in all those rocks, maybe a slight crop from the bottom and right hand side?

I like the idea of #4, however I reckon she needs to be looking at the camera or have her head tilted back, to me its like she is looking at at something past the bit of wood in front of her, however that trunk is blocking her view...does that make sense..?

I do keep coming back to the 1st one, great pose and great BW option!

great use of location i see your developing very swiftly

the 1st and 2nd one has the best pose and interaction with scene as the model looks effortless even though its a contrived pose
thats the secret and you got it

the others the model looks a bit uncomfortable in her pose but im sure its because it was a hard for the model to model with those trees

excellent work

Looks like you made good use of a trip down the south coast.
Bombo Quarry and Jamberoo mountain???

I actually like the way she's lost in the scenery in #2. An element of surprise as you look at the scene.
#1 works well, but like others, I have reservations about #3 & #4, but cannot say why.

The first location was at Bombo, and the waterfall was near Jamberoo... but I couldn't tell you exactly where...

Now, they are simply beautiful. How did you
manage to take the first photograph without
risking the life and limb of your model?
I normally don't like nude photos because I
find them cheap and taudry, but these are
exceptional in my books.

Thank you zafra... that means a lot to me...

#1 wasn't that dangerous - only 4ft off the ground... Jennifer is quite athletic, so she was clambering all over the rocks...

To be honest, I was more worried about #2 as she was MUCH higher...

Excellent poses and photographic craftmanship.
I like how in the first one the body is reflected
and distorted by the water. In the second, I like
the contrast between the living and the rough
elements; and in thethe third one, the colours
an proportions. Some famous photographer said
that a landscape needs a living creature (in this
case the human form) to bring it to life.
You've done very well and obviously you wouldn't
have achieve such beautiful photographs without
a mutual confidence between you and your
beautiful subject.
