This is my belly...about the photo itself I have nothing else to say.
About the pp work...Used the color balance to increase the blue,desaturated the rest of the photo...then used the healing tool to fix the left upper corner(increased the white) and then applied diffuse glow in that area.After that I increased shadows and highlights...I think it was it.I'll post the original as a workshop.
Do you like my belly button? ;-)

Very sexy and original self portrait,Raquel! Nothing else to say!...

Like it! Fine subject,fine composition, fine work with colors. Yes...that is a fine belly button too. In fact, I don't see anything I dislike about this photo. Wait...What's the black thing on the left edge? Oh well... I still like it! Like the original too.

buena foto Raquel, es acertada la decision de dessaturar el resto y dejar solo el azul del jean..
viendo esta foto me dan ganas de ver mas aun...por lo tanto lograste tu objetivo, jaaa es sexy la foto.
lindo ombligo..
chau

Wow. That is hot!! ;) Love the pink tint. Great composition. Looks very professional! Love it. JP

Very nice work! I like the color... hue of pink on the B/W.

VaVaVoom...Calvin Klein's got nothin' on you.
Kool Shot!!

Good shot, nice tones and lovely saturation. If I had to pick out something about the photo I don't like, it would probably be you cut off the index finger abruptly, never the less, good work. I refuse to comment on your belly button so you can get all hot thinking about the men of TL gawking at it!

Did you use ISO400 intentionally to add noise? Since you were using a tripod, I can't imagine why you didnt use ISO100.

I love it like a Calvin Klein ad.

Good realisation like an ad for a jeans! At this point a was lookking for the brand.... Your processing is good!

Ho my God... I laughing a little bit... I imagine myself doing the same... I'm not in jeans i'm in a military style... For shure it's more sexy in your way! :o)Great shot!

About your Belly button... It could be a challenge... Show your Belly Button :o)

I'm not shure everybody want to...

Greetings!

sexy, design, graphic and did I say sexy...
superb belly bottom by the way!

I like how this picture is strong and tender at the same time. I like the contrast between the soft glimmering skin and rough washed denim of jeans fabric. The strength in your opening jesture brings energy which is also in contrast with body's delicate lines. Brave and beautiful job!
As for you question..:) Your belly button is superb. I like how it shaped in 'T'.. Is that for 'Temptation'? ;)

Hi Raquel,

Not much to add after 21 persons!!! ;o) Great photo. Very sexy as you wanted.

Watch out, once you get all this attention, you'll always desire more! ;o) hehe

Have fun.

Francois

Hi Raquel...Tones are great, especially purple and pink tones that make the photo more feminine...Excellent pose...It goes to my favorites...Thank you for sharing...

Can

fantastic shot Raquel! really looks like a jean ad in a magazine :-) you've processed it really well to enhance the mood, like the fact you desaturated all but the jeans a lot.. i was working on a t-shirt shot with a similar principle a few days ago but never ended up posting it.. you've done so well here and that's a fine belly button you have too! ihih :) - Ayda

very sexy, and well framed... i like it

i like very much your photos...

Very good work on PP with excellent results! As to your belly button, it looks good, your doctor did a good job when you were a newborn.

simply amazing

This is nice, nice pp work with the colors, bravo!

Nice idea on the posture. I always wanted to take some similar shots! I like the tight cropping on this shot. I would have preferred the hand to be into the picture a little bit more. It's like a bit here but not there yet.
Nevertheless, marvellous shot! Well done!
Nice belly button btw! ;)

Hi Elias,
look we have same feeling and idea to create portrait like this,
(plz see my gallery and look file "Helo Moto")
nice POV in your photo but I feel its need more focus and need more lighting in her body so you can get her beauty curve.
