I'm still learning how to take pictures of people (as opposed to

motorcycles) so any input is helpful

May I sugst lowering your resolution to 800x600.

wish it was smaller

Bad light, bad angle, bad composition. Make it vertical!

Mike Scarpitti: brutish critic. The picture's OK, should have been downsized before posting. I like the composition and the background bokeh.

I agree that you need to shrink the picture size to around 100K and cropping is needed because you want to focus on the subject, not a lot of fuzzy leaves. And you might want to pose her on a motorcycle seeing as that what you have more experience with. Women on motorcycles always get my attention. :)

Sorry about the size. I'll take care of that before I upload another.

 

As to the cropping, I wasn't sure how much space I wanted to leave ahead of her. I don't like portraits where the subject is staring at the edge of the frame, but I'll accept that it should have gone the other way a bit. I'll try an upload a slight crop and see what you think of that.

I like the other first one more to be honest
