Overall it is a an ok portrait you have here.

But there is a few things i would have changed.

1: Focus on the eyes. (also hey eyes look wierd on the photo, like you cought her in a blink)

2: Remove the marks on her stomach, they are disrupting the image.

3: More light on the face. maybe use a reflector to soften up the light on her face.

Michael was obviously writing his comment as I was "playing" with your image...... but interestingly enough, his comments are similar to mine. I like the use of a single light source here, in fact, I like the whole image.

In the larger view, her complexion is marred by the "acne of youth" (something we all lived with at some stage). As a photographer we need to rectify this either in-camera or through post processing (IMHO).

Being no expert with PS, I have tried to elliminate/reduce the obvious "signs of youth"........... hope you don't mind.

A good capture.......... well done to you both

Best regards

Thanks Grayham. I was tempted to remove the "blemish" too but had second thought. But I do appreciate your point.

very beautiful pictures I really like a greeting  ciao.. from Milan Italy ... alex
