  •   Comment - We'll have to agree to disagree on which photos from that series are our favorites. Feel free to nominate one of those if you like, though. They're both good photos, especially the first one, which I'd support without hesitation. You didn't say what you don't like about this one, though. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 07:56, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • I disagree. In that one, the strong artificial light in from behind the camera does not match the natural light coming from the opposite direction at all. Nothing against a bit of fill flash (the current candidate could certainly have benefited from that), but his looks almost like a studio shot in front of a printed backdrop to me. --El Grafo (talk) 09:30, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, this is like a studio shot with exterior environment. It could be natural if the light comes from a street lamp or any other source located outside. I even don't know how it was done with the electricity on this beach. Interesting in my view. Anyway, this would be another nom -- Basile Morin (talk) 10:40, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose Sorry, but as someone used to reading lifestyle/fashion magazines, catalogs for women's wear and such on- and off-line, I find this and the whole series rather dated like some printed media from the 70s. For me, they are fine as QIs to just show the garments, albeit in rather over-sexed poses, but for FP I'd like something a little more stylish. The photos are an awkward mix of styles, like am I looking at an ambient photo of landscape with a woman, the garments, a sexy fold-out, a portrait or what. --Cart (talk) 09:25, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Comment I wanted to show the 2017s bikini with the lace insert, the pants and all things you can do with it during the golden hour and a little beyond. Including flash fotography with a color gel and a silluet. Only thing missing is how to put the pants on.--Tobias ToMar Maier (talk) 22:39, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Oppose In addition to what Cart wrote: The lighting on the face looks very nice as long as I look at the face alone. As soon as I view the picture as whole, the face disappears in the shadows, turning the illuminated front of her torso into the main visual anchor point (possibly good for a fashion shot but really not helpful for a portrait). The pose is unflattering; the model is much slimmer than she looks in this image. If "sexy" is the intention here, this one does it much better. --El Grafo (talk) 10:18, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  •   Comment - That one is a little less unusual to me. It really doesn't seem like this one is going to make it, though. I'll likely withdraw soon unless the voting unexpectedly turns around. I knew this could be a stretch, as I really had no idea how everyone might react. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:22, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
