I don't know why the panel love this picture. They said they like it because it looks natural, as they were really couple who's chatting instead of posing. But IMO, they look as they're not ready, and Elyse looks like she is confused and thinking.

^ I said something along those lines before all of the cycles had to be re-uploaded and someone said it's because I "didn't understand high fashion." Well, I still think it's an overrated photo but at least you can see the lingerie (compared to the other shots) she's modeling in her photo.

I really can't remember this episode too well (cycle 1 hasn't been on in AGES and I'm too lazy to look them all up) but... the panel liked this? D: I mean, sure, they're displaying the lingerie well... but there's no passion in her eyes, and the pose is too meh. I also think it's weird how cycle 1 focused on REAL real modeling (Ebony or someone was kicked off for the texture of her skin?) and they focused too much on what they were selling instead of what the other cycles did, teaching them HOW to sell it.

I think that this picture is very cool! And did anyone else notice that this bra set was the same one that she wore in the first photo shoot? Weird, I bet that they were prolly on a tight budget!

^ Do you mean the shoot where they were on top of the building? If that's what you're referring to they were actually wearing bathing suits but I do think they look similar in the thumbnails. You were right about the tight budget though. I recall Tyra saying something like the clothes the girls wore in the promo photo were all from her own closet. Also, remember the hotel that they stayed at in Paris? It was nothing like the places she hooks the gals up with now, especially this past cycle in Rome.

This is wat u would see in a high fashion magazine ^ clearly u guys don't know wat fashion is: it's about selling clothes!

^ ::Groan:: Just because something is "high fashion" doesn't mean you have to like it. Art is supposed to be objective. I'm actually well acquainted with high fashion but, like other forms of art, I appreciate what appeals to me and this just doesn't.

Gosh.... It's hyper overrated this photo!!!!

I don't like it. It looks like a still. But at least it has certain story, like if they were lovers, and she had to go back home.

I dont think this is her best shot, this does not do elyse justice. Elyse was my favourite

From a fashion standpoint Elyse did do the best at showing off the lingerie here,however it is way too akward for me.But I do see it really fashionably in a really cool and stylish avant-garde way.

Well... I like the "in action" sort of thing they are displaying. It looked more natural then everybody elses and on top of that, it was the best one out of the week. By the way that male model pretty much sucked at life... like really? thats all they could get? I mean props to him being short but he sucked!

No intensity in the eyes, nothing interesting about the body, the male model looks hideous and that see through bikini, BLEARGH, I think I'm gonna throw up!.

how can she hae "intensity in he eyes" when she didn't even know the photog was shooting? this was a candid shot of her, shot by the photog after they finished turn.. they loved it so much, they made it her judging photo..

there must be some shote better than this. i dont think the panel picks the best everytime, but they pick ones that prove a point

Looks like they got done having sex

It's her worst shot.

both models failed horribly in this shoot but at least elyse did show off the clothes which is a models job

This entire shoot sucked. Big time. I couldn't say anything good about this shot except that she is showing the lingerie...but that's it.

This reminds me of Megg's "Bearded Lady" shot from cycle 7; she looks like she's waiting for the shoot to start. Not as bad as Robin's, but...oy.
