Actually, I'd prefer the positive version. Even if this one is original. Why not keep the positive version of the shot ?

Purity of lines, nice soft grey, a discrete background and this lovely shadow on her shoulder that gives it a third dimension,we don't even have to see the face of this woman to feel her calm. This is not only a nice picture, it's a great Photography with a capital P that reveals a great sensitivity.

OK, didn't read the other critics before writing mine and then discovered it was a negative of the original photo. Doesn't change anything in my opinion, just shows that there are two sides to one person, and this one reveals the inner side of you Thien, the one with the artistic soul.

Because of the highlighted (subsequently black) shoulder area, the negative version doesn't really work for me.

Excellent composition prefectly captured in B&W Thien!

I don't think it's allowed here but I like the idea.
And your framing is so great! very lovely work Thien. I wish you sent me a HUGE print of it... ;-)

amazing shoot

Très belle composition, cette photo est surprenante et superbe!

An attractive image. As a 10D it must have beenb colour originally. Doesn't quite look like a negative to me - is it solarized and made b+w?

Very beautiful picture. The face of the woman is not necessary I'm agree but the neck yes ( so well done ). And I like the way of she tied the lace around her obi.
Thanks Thien, it's a pleasure visiting your gallery.

jolie photo, l'idée de la rendre "négative" donne une plus forte intensité graphique... je trouve!
