This is an interesting photo to me. I feel her surprise. Very well done. It will be well into the future before I attempt nude models but this capture is art at it's highest form. Bravo!

Location
I took this photo when I was studying. It was in Pretoria at Vega school of brand leadership.Time
It was in the evening in the school studio as it was the only time we were both free.Lighting
It was the first time I was going to do bodyscapes and these were test shots so I could see where to place my side light. Yet it turned out to be a winner shot.Equipment
I used my entry level Nikon D5100 with an 18-55mm stock lens. The lights were elimchrom brx 500 heads with strip boxes on them.Inspiration
At the time there was a hype about bodyscapes and they were everywhere. My curiosity got the better of me and I decided to give it a try. But not before I tested my lighting and decided to add a light next to me just to possibly capture something. And thats all she wrote....Editing
Minimal editing was done .all I had to do was darken the backround, clean the skin abit then for the final step I played with curves to control the contrast.In my camera bag
I have changed my gear recently and now have the beautiful D800 and battery grip. My favourite lenses the nikon 24-70mm and 70-200mm never stay at home and to top it all off my 2x nikon sb-910 speedlights with a yongnou set of triggers. Life is complete with this set.Feedback
Never doubt a test shot and always look at all your shots as in my example my test may have been my best. Shoot , play ,edit and relook over the images
