Warning: Nude Model

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Nude model photography is very popular in China and I just joined them last Sunday and found it is interesting.

We have to go one hour by car to the mountain area for shooting nude girls.

Indeed I did.

And I've said on more than one occasion that we'll have some nice surprises from Poon at our Chrissie dinner. ;)

But no, there won't be nude models.

Poon, it certainly draws a crowd! I remember you telling me about this, didn't expect so many photographers.

Like the second and third photos best.

Number 3 is a cracker.

I reckon the composition is very interesting.

The 1st one is quite amusing, looks like a real paprazzi scrum.... :D

Hi Poon, well i am a sucker for a nude body and dont mind admitting it and well these are all nice pics but i too like Tony like #3. It is a different perspective and i like it. Also i can you are a lucky man,LOL i could see Lisa there beating me with a big stick if i ever got near anything like this.
Look forward to more shots.

#1 is interesting in that there appears to be another group action in the background - I can imagine group clusters all over the countryside then a mad dash back to base to process :lol: :lol: :lol:

Simon,

Yes, you need at least a "camera" to join the group but you may be ashamed to do so as most of them are professionally equipped.

I saw few has both point and shot and DSLR body. I don't undertand this.

Poon,

I suspect Pa was kidding. He's a bit like a dog chasing a car: wouldn't know what to do with it if he caught it. :)

Poon - these are all well done. Love the lighting, perspective and DOF.
Also very tasteful. Well done. Cheers, Mick :) :) :)

Shame you had to put the copyright on them though :lol: :lol: :lol:

Hmm...Models at the Christmas Dinner - I'd better book!!!
That's right, think I already have.

Maybe we'll need a few spare spots for all the camera gear when OUR media scrum gets wind of the models. I remember how congested things can get queueing up to take shots at the portrait workshop (wasn't bad at all really).

I shouldn't be too expensive to get a shoot like that set up here - life models only charge ~$40/hr or less last I looked so two models for two hours is $10/each for 16 of us. It's even possible that we might find group members willing to have a go in return for a discount :)

There's a model directory here and I recall there's a much better one but it seems to be paper only. I'll try to track it down.

I guess we are very fortunate that women make such nice models, and are willing to stand around while we take photos of them too. :)

Yes, we are lucky.
It is just part-time job for the girls.
They are linked to some photo forums and
organizers there always change models and
you can see new face every month.
The girls are proud to show their body in public.

We also need a venue.

And 16 is too many for a shoot such as this, AFAIC. I like to keep the numbers to no more than 10 or so, so as to keep the group manageable.

Num 1 is a Zoo.
Num 2 is brilliant ! Especially when you convert it to B&W and drop the levels a bit.
Num 3 I don't mind.
