Back lines (self image)

[Reminisce]

This is an image I took, of myself, because I have been playing with lighting extensively for a while now, and have been trying to learn to capture curves and definition with defining shadows. After a bit of experimenting I came to find the angle and amount of lighting I liked to create the effect. The only processing done was a bit of contrasting, small shadowing, and I lowered the master saturation a bit. This is a resized crop. Let me know what you guys think.

Great shot! I think you nailed the lighting. Haha, work out often? :-)

Nice lighting and nice back.

Very nice. Both back and shot. I particularly like the hands; both lines and curves, and the thumb draws the eye down the spine.

Thanks folks, I appreciate the comments. This was actually a fun experiment because I need to apply it to an upcoming shoot and wanted to get an idea of what I was looking for. I never knew I had a back like that til I took a couple shots like this, hehe, my surprise as well :)
