Most of them are pretty good.
For some reason, the photos won't appear in their complete form. There should be 3 poses in each frame but I'll have them cropped to fit better by next week. But for now, here's a sneak peak.

ANTM Episode 6
Dance With Me
Benny Ninja was one of many guest appearance on this week's episode focusing on movement and the body. The Jabbawockeez and Lil Mama showed the girls how to dance to express emotions, primarily focusing on anger, joy, and sadness. The girls were then split into groups of 3 and they had to choreograph their own routine resulting in a $17,000 worth of jewelry win for Kara, Jennifer, and Rae. I enjoy the teachings of Benny Ninja but this cycle didn't focus on him as the Jabbawockeez and Lil Mama were the instructors. Also, the acting/dancing challenges are usually boring so it was not a surprise I wanted to fast forward to the photoshoot.
For the photoshoot, the girls were flown to Las Vegas and teamed up with Cirque du Soleil for an interesting photoshoot with photographer Mike Rosenthal. I really like Mike Rosenthal's photography and the photoshoots for top model with him as the photographer are weird, unique, and stunning.
The girls shot in groups of 3 and the photo of the week was awarded to the 3 girls in said photo. Jennifer lucked out, and you will see why. After that was presented, the remaining girls were called out individually.
Rae, Brittany, Jennifer - First Call-Out
Rae: Last week, I wanted her to have a photo where she didn't appear angelic, and she listened. She looks mean, in a good way, and even though there is someone infront of her, she still stands out.
Brittany: Like Rae, she has that mean look and like Tyra would say, is working the "ugly-pretty".
Jennifer: She looks boring and plain. The only reason she was not in the bottom two was because she lucked out and had two strong girls in her frame.
Nicole, Erin, Sundai
Nicole: Even though she was "the weakest one" of the group according to the judges, she was called before Sundai and Erin. You can see why.
Erin: Erin always has great photos but she never has that WOW picture which she needs to obtain in the next episodes or she will be sent home.
Sundai: As much as I like Sundai, this photo is just ok, not great. She allegedly had an amazing film but Tyra had to find a photo were Nicole looked decent.
Laura, Kara, Ashley
Laura: Of all the photos, Laura stands out the most. Like Tyra would usually say, she looks sexy, but not in a hoochie kind of a way. Obviously Laura also brought her lovable personality this episode. Unlike some of the past contestants that are excited to be on Top Model, Laura actually looks genuine. Her joy and excitement is believable, unlike some *ahem* Saleisha(Cycle9).
Kara: I have never liked her, but never hated her either. I was indifferent. However, I hate her now. I was already starting to dislike her since she hung out with Ashley and Lulu but this episode she was rude and said disrespectful things about my favorite Nicole. That is a HUGE no-no. With regards to her photo, she doesn't stand out or seem memorable, the end.
Ashley: Someone take those sleeping pills away from Ashley before she overdoses. Like last week, she looks bored and lacks the energy that the other girls brought to the table. Good thing the bitch is gone.
Rankings:
Laura
Rae
Brittany
Nicole
Erin
Sundai
Jennifer
Kara - Bottom Two
Ashley - Eliminated
Surprisingly, I have been agreeing with most of the eliminations. [Except Rachel's]

ANTM Episode 5
Take My Photo, Tyra!
The make-up and beauty shot episode of the season provided an abundance of drama, sparking the first limo outburst of the cycle.
Like previous cycles, the girls got make-up tips and had the Walmart challenge with Nigel Barker and his wife Chrissy. Sundai won the challenge which included the $1,000 giftcard and having her photo up on the Walmart website.
At the house after the challenge, Ashley complains about her bruises caused by Erin's rough attitude during the challenge. On the way to the photo shoot, Bianca and Ashley confront Erin about her behavior at the challenge, making her cry and forcing an apology out of the contestant.
The photoshoot is a beauty shot with Tyra as the photographer using scarfs to add some variety to the shoot. Most of the girls did a great job while two of them failed miserably. As soon as the girls are done, Tyra and Mr. Jay decide on the spot that Brittany had the best shot and not only would win immunity but would shoot with male models for a photo that would be featured on the Tyra Banks Show website.
Brittany - First Call-Out
I actually understand why Tyra chose this. It may appear that some of the other ones are better, but this girl worked through an actual scarf unlike the rest that just had it tied on their head.
Nicole
Do I even have to explain why bloody eyeball is one of my favorite and why this photo is stunning?
Rae
Rae is extremely angelic in most of her photographs. I would like to see a more edgier look for her.
Erin
I don't want to jinx anything, but Erin will have one of the better post-antm careers. She knows how to model from the bottom of her toes to the tips of her fingertips.
Sundai
Sundai has one of the best personalities of all the ANTM contestants. She reminds me of my friend Alexis. You should check out her blog: http://shawnalexis.blogspot.com/
Jennifer
I think I know why some people hate this photo. It's not Jennifer, but the background that ruins this for many.
Laura
Like Sundai, Laura has quite the lovable personality. I also would like to be her friend. The photo looks extremely Renaissance-esque and her personality this episode was evident, as always.
Kara
Not gonna lie, this picture is really pretty. Kara managed to softer up her face which deserves a pat on the back.
Ashley - Bottom Two
This is where the photoshoot goes downhill. In here, she reminds me of Beyonce's sister, Solange, but after she took sleeping pills and was struck by a tranquilizer gun.
Bianca - Eliminated
She really knows how to move her body, but not the face. After 3 times in the bottom, it was her time to leave.
