ANTM Cycle Thirteen – Hapa

Summary:

A wonderful photoshoot with the most retarded elimination of the cycle. But still an awesome photoshoot, VERY hard to rank.

Ranking:

And the first name I’m going to call is…

1. Brittany

This is absolutely wonderful, one of the strongest shots of the cycle, and they eliminate Brittany for it? Her pose isn’t safe or formulaic, it’s stoic and regal like she was going for and it’s absolutely stunning. Her face is beautiful, I love the tension in it and the power in her eyes. Her arm looks wonderful too, I love how she’s touching her hip. This elimination is complete bullshit.

2. Laura

This shot’s grown on me after a while. Laura’s face looks beautiful and is so emotive. I love the way she has her legs spread out and her hands look great. One of Laura’s best photos.

3. Nicole

This is amazing too, Nicole’s neck is her greatest asset and I think this photo is one of the best examples of that. Her styling is sick; the dark hair and skin looks amazing on her and the green dress is amazing too. And Nicole is selling it all.

4. Erin

This didn’t deserve bottom two. There’s motion in the photograph and power in Erin’s posture and in her eyes. It’s not the number one photo of the week or Erin’s best work, but it’s very beautiful.

5. Jennifer

\

I’m not a huge fan of this. She’s selling the necklace and her mouth is closed, but it’s not a good angle for her body and I think her chest looks weird. And although she’s hiding her eye problem, her eyes don’t spark in the photo.

6. Sundai

How this was kept over Brittany’s shot I’ll never understand. Sundai looks 2 ft tall, she had the same face she’s had every week and the dress looks like a potato sack on her. She’s pretty much disregarding everything the judges have ever critiqued about her, and she didn’t even go in the bottom two. And Brittany’s been consistently at the top bar one week, while Sundai’s consistently sucked through the whole competition. Ridiculous.
