Bahama Breeze

1.Click to view full size image-MEAGHAN
This shot is great; I really love how depressed Meaghan looks as if she lost her fiancee on the beach.  It's an awesome shot and one of Meaghan's best.

2.Click to view full size image-MARYAM
I love how pissed off Maryam looks here.  It's like she's tired off all the garbage that her future in-laws and just wants to go away.  Great photo!

3.Click to view full size image-HEATHER
I love how Heather looks like she's regretting her marriage or something but IDK something seems off about the shot.  Still, it's a really good photo.

4.-REBECCAH
Rebeccah's body pretty much ruins this shot since it looks wide and short.  I think her face saves this shot though.  I love the melencholic emotion.

5.Click to view full size image-LINSAY
Linsay pretty much looks like a dead fish on shore.  I kind of like the emotion but it's too lifeless.

6.Click to view full size image-NIKITA
Nikita's worse shot.  The only thing I like is how long she looks.  Everything else looks jank especially the stiffness.

7.Click to view full size image-TARA
Tara is pretty unique look-wise.  That's a pretty good thing unless you don't know your angles.  Tara looks like a fake bird here who does a weak attempt of protecting her jewelry.

8.Click to view full size image-EBONIE
Ebonie has the emotion here and I like how the red KIND OF looks like blood.  But besides that, it's a horrible shot.  Her body looks thick and even though she went for the emotion, she ended up making it look (to quote Miss. Ribs) ugly-ugly and not ugly-pretty.

And the call outs on the show were!

Couture on a Ladder

1. Click to view full size image-NIKITA
Perfection and one of Nikita's best shot.  She looks like some Egyptian queen on a ladder.  The dress looks great on Nikita, she looks tall, and that face is absolutely amazing.

2.-HEATHER
I love how ethereal Heather looks here.  I think she looks tall here and her face looks breathtaking here.  The only thing I don't like is how the dress looks from the waist down.  But besides that, it's a lovely shot.

3.-MARYAM
I think that this shot really shouldn't work but it does for me.  I love the dress (though I wish she gave a little more shape to it) and I like the pose a lot and I like how composed the face is.  Also, I know this may sound strange but I love how soft her hand touches the guy rather than putting all of her weight on that hand.

4.-MEAGHAN
I think that the body looks ugh-maaaaaaaa-zing!  She looks at least 6'0" and the dress really looks great on her.  The thing I don't like is how blank her expression is; it makes her looks more like a mannequin than a human being.

5.-TARA
I don't really like the hands on the hips pose but Tara looks so tall here and she shows off that strange dress well.  The face is nice as well but I wish the hair wasn't covering her eyes.

6.-REBECCAH
I lovelovelove how quirky Rebeccah's face looks here; it looks absolutely adorable.  The only thing is I wish the light wasn't hitting her hands that way because they look like they're not there and I wish she looked a little bit younger (though I blame it on the styling).


7.-LINSAY
I like how soft and romantic Linsay looks here but she doesn't look fresh here.

8.-JILL
It's a very stiff and forced shot.  The pose doesn't look natural and makes Jill look short and not show the dress well and her face looks confused and slightly old.

9.-EBONIE
I think Ebonie looks tall but that face looks drag and not fresh.  I also don't really like the outfit and the way they did Ebonie's hair.

And the call outs!

The Zookeeper

1.-REBECCAH
Lovely; I absolutely love the pride that Rebeccah has in this photo and how statuesque she looks.  Her neck seems to go on forever and I love how she's not afraid of the bird.

2.-NIKITA
I really love this shot because of how elegant Nikita looks ad like she doesn't really care what the snake does to her or anyone in the room.  Her face, like always is amazing.  However, I don't like how the body looks here.

3.-MARYAM
This is a great shot; I love Maryam's face and how she's really overprotective of the bird.  The only thing I don't like is how crunched up her body looks; it makes her look short.

4.-MEAGHAN
It's a nice photo.  It looks like Meaghan is posing for a portrait or something.  She looks very pretty here but I wish there was that extra oomph.

5.-HEATHER
I like this shot a lot; I think that the styling is awesome and I love how at home Heather looks though I don't think she looks fresh in the face.

6.-TARA
It's a nice photo and I definitely think that Tara looks really pretty here but like Meaghan, I wish it had that extra oomph to make this photo spectacular.

7.-JILL
This is just really dull.  All Jill is doing is holding the snake in her hand thinking she looks hot.  It ends up looking boring and not doing anything to make this photo truly great.

8.-EBONIE
A pretty girl petting a cat is pretty much all I see in this shot.  It's not really a horrible thing but in fashion it's not really that great.

9.-LINSAY
This looks like some 30 year old science teacher who is trying to explain the feature of this bird.  I blame part of it on the styling since it is horrendous but Linsay isn't doing anything to make this shot better.

10.-TIFFANY
I'm not really one of those people who think that this photo is horrible.  I think it's just an okay photo with strange arm placement and a confused expression.  Not absolutely horrible though.

And the call outs!

Cover Girl Finally!

About to finish Cycle 13! YAAAAAAAAAAAAY!

1.-NICOLE
Perfect way to end Nicole's amazing performance! Nicole looks so sweet and fresh and friendly.  I love the slight hint of a smile and I think she really embodies Cover Girl here.

2.-LAURA
It's a pretty photo but something about this shot has always been off for me.  Like one thing is why did they bleach Laura's eyebrows for the shoot? I've always wondered that... But Laura just looks like she's a pretty girl who's hanging and waiting for her friends or something; it doesn't really look like an ad.

And then Nicole won! YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And my elimination order!
14. Sundai (I love Sundai personality-wise but her photos were never really that great and that's really not good especially if you're so short.)
(I'm not eliminating anyone at the Wilhelmina meeting, I'll just have a double elimination at Lady Godiva)
13. Rachel (Her post show shows what she looks like when she tries to be slightly sexy and that's a fail.  She's got a lovely face but on the show she didn't reall know how to work her body correctly where it would look expensive rather than cheap.)
12. Bianca (The photo was a mess and she's been complaining way too much.  I do like Bianca a lot actually but she just didn't photograph as I would have loved her to.)
11. Courtney (I don't really think she would have done great here.  She had a great photo the first week but that was it...)
10. Lisa (I see her giving a pretty photo but nothing else)
9. Jennifer (This photo is horrible and Jennifer hasn't really been consistent with her photos.)
8. Ashley (I don't really see Ashley giving her all in this shoot TBH.)
7. Kara (I think that Kara would get really nervous here and probably wouldn't do so well.  Plus her body of work isn't as strong as the other girls.)
6. Laura (I love Laura but she's really the weakest of the 6.)
5. Lulu (Would probably have the weakest portfolio to this point.)
4. Rae (I love Rae and I think that she has done an amazing job but it's between her and Brittany and I think that Brittany would have given a much stronger photo.)
3. Brittany (Would probably look not as fresh as Nicole and Erin and they have been much stronger overall.)
2. Erin (Erin has done amazing but Nicole beats everyone this cycle.)
1. Nicole (One of the best ANTM winners for sure.  Love.)

Pele Godesses

1.-ERIN
The pose is probably the best of the bunch.  I love how elegant yet seductive Erin looks and the dress is fabulous.  The close up is lovely as well though the thing that has always bothered me is how stiff the neck is.

2.-NICOLE
I know that Nicole looks pregnant with that dress but that close up is just divine.

3.-JENNIFER
The eyes look wonky but she doesn't look horrible short and I love the drama in the background.

4.-LAURA
This is horrible.  The pose is really strange and doesn't help contort the dress in a flattering angle and it makes Laura look short as well.  The face isn't as horrible, but it doesn't really look like a model; just a really pretty girl.  I love the hair though.

And Tyra's call outs!
