Nice shots. I have seen the blind effect before and you have exceuted it very well, also the B&W treatment really suits the shots.
#1 is my fav.

First set, my pic is No 2. a cracking shot, nice curves not overly busy.
Second set, No 2. is very arty and the last one gets my brain doing a dance ~ damn!
Very well done.

Please, let's try to keep the discussion to the merits (or not) of the images.
I think that the last two of this lattermost set are the pick of this bunch, and the last of these is easily the best.
The textures displayed, both of the skin, and by the shadows projected onto the skin, plus the lines and shapes make within the image make this a most interesting one. I'm slightly disturbed by the two small white spots that I'm seeing just above the middle of this image - and I'm buggered if I know what they might be.
The pose, lighting, and composition of the second to last one are also very good.

The first of the series is the pick IMO the strong contrast against the flowing shape  really works...
Very cool mate

The second last one in the last set, and the last one of the first set are the best two images in the thread, well done, they are fantastic shots.
Sorry for sounding like a riddle.
