Your comments/critiques most appreciated. Thanks for visiting.

Excellent captue John. Great use of lighting and tones. Congrats.

Superb portrait, John. Congratulations!

Technical excellence.  I like the subtle texture in the floor in contrast to the soft beauty of the model.  Nice work!

Wow! Beautifully photographed John. Love the lighting against the dark background. Well done!

All the best,
Neil

I like how you composed this,larger view looks excellent and shows better your work,best regards.

I take it that this was taken outside under available light. It just shows you don't need a studio to create wonderful portraits.

Image in a very beautiful style specially the framing.

although it's size is small, but for sure you capture a beautiful image with good use of soft lighting, fantastic tones and lovely pose

This capture is a superb portrait one! Very appealing pose, nice compositin, very good depth, and awesome b/w conversion with diverse tones! I vote definitely for this b/w version. Bravo.

Beautiful shot... Light effect is awesome..

Thank you all very much for your positive feedback, encouraging comments, and generous ratings. To give some technical details this was shot at ISO100, focal length 86mm, aperture f2.8, 1/25 sec shutter speed and -1/3 exposure compensation. The light was overcast which gave me the soft light. Available light was used without flash. Thanks again and regards to all . . . JB
