It feels powerful to me, like freedom.

The lighting is stunning too.

Original take on the theme. Good shot.

I definitely like the concept. I think, however, that if the model were Mother Teresa this image would have greater impact.

You've gone this far. Now, IMHO, some more realistic, alternative ideas to increase dramatic impact: Keep the head and arms the same, but

Pose her on her knees;
Remove her clothing;
Put her is some exotic, fanciful or futuristic clothing--something out of the ordinary;
Have her crying out or weeping for joy or pain;
Put something dead, dying or newly born at her feet;
Put a newspaper reading "WAR ENDS!" in the shot;
etc.

I like the concept, but I want to have my socks blown off by it, too. Good idea and good work, otherwise. Higher than average ratings from me.

cute idea.

Ana said 571 days ago:

@King. Looks too cold for her to remove her clothing!

King said 571 days ago:

@Ana
It's never too cold for art, a few minutes at a time. Well, maybe 20 below is a little too cold.

Thanks all for your comments and suggestions, even if some were tongue in cheek (King!). Must say, I'm not a fan of the socks blown off type of photograph, I'm usually one for subtlety more often than not!
