Because I'm a slacker here the last two shooting together.
The Salad Shoot
At first I was really not into the idea of shooting in a salad bowl, but actually I think the pictures turned out quite nice
Laura - First of all knowing that she was sick that day I can see exactly that in her face. It looks really pale and not good (which is not her fault, just something I recognize right away). Second I don't see the sexy the judges saw. I don't really like the pose so much and the oil glas in her hand. I think her body needs a little more twisting and tension. Honestly, if Shannon wouldn't have been there not doing the shoot I would've send Laura home.
Lisa - I really like this shot, very soothing and relaing how she is in that bowl of food. But she is still being aware of her body and arching that back instead of crumbling and laying there comfortable.
Angelea - Only thing I don't like so much about this picture is probably her face, looks a bit sleepy and tired. Her body might need just a tiny bit more tension but the pose is definitly good.
Allison - As much as I love her she really has to close that mouthXD Other than that I like the story behind this picture, she looks like she ate too much from the salad and maybe even drank some of the oil and now has to rest. I was sad though that they couldn't get a good shot with her eyes open because they tried so much.
Dominique - Oh I love everything about this picture and really forget that she is laying in cucumbers and tomatos and bread and cheese. Great pose and body tension and her face is well controlled too. Deserved best picture, though Angelea of course thought otherwise.
The Olympic Sports Shoot
I had really high hopes for this shoot but somehow it didn't turn out the way I hoped it would.
Laura - The only shot I really really like. Her pose is perfect and she models through that veil without any trouble. I wonder if any of the others could've pulled of a picture like this with the bow.
Allison - Second best for me, though not really close to Lauras. I think she pulled it off in the end, considering how akward she started the shoot, but I have to agree with André, that her one heel has gone into the ground like that takes things away from the picture, because it changes her posture a lot.
Angelea - She got on my nerves so much during that episode, bitching against the girls all the time. She really can't handle objective criticism well and I do believe the girls weren't trying to bash on her but do what the challenge expected them to do = being judges. That picture Angelea took is just...Damn it judges she didn't deserve to stay because a) she just got best Photo once, Dominique twice, b) she is not stable enough emotionally and personally for the fashion business and c) she looks like Mr. Fanatstic, her arm and her leg are just overstretched it's not pretty at all. Not to mention how much Nigel had to show her during the actual shooting.
Lisa - Don't really like her shot, she would've been with Angelea in the bottom two if I had a voice there. Her on leg gets lost in the gown which looks akward to me and her face...sorry but this was about olympic sport you don't do them in a dream mood, there needs to be determination to win it in the face!
Dominique - I'm not really happy with her pose, I think it could've been a little more athletic and still look like a model. I did like it a lot though that she looks like some sort of warrior princess and I think she deserved to stay. If they just want people to be overflowing with personality to be in the competition they should just crown Lisa the winner and stop eliminating girls with great potential.
