"License to Kill"

Powerful image... Excellent execution...!!!

super ! very well done work ! 7/7

Just the fact that you know a woman of this magnitude is astounding. I have never seen a woman with such exotic features. There are many beautiful women on this site but this gal has a look all her own. Maybe it's the sparing use of the eye liner or the strategic glossy pout combined with the freckles all coming together in a rare case of serendipity but I can't imagine what I would do if I were to run into her in a crowded mall or street. I'd certainly stop and stair - probably get slapped. Man what a precious moment this must have been for you. This vixen is the real deal and you captured it.

I really like this picture but I find the crop not as well thought out as some of your others.If you added back some of the forhead I feel it would add and not take away.I think my judgement on the crop is because the eyes are in the top centre rather than just above the middle.Keep up the good work!Cheers!

You have such an original eye on portraits. Very well done and superb folder.

Quite simply, this is the best picture I have seen to date on photo.net. This is absolutely stunning and I am totally mesmerized by it. 100/100 ... if only it was possible to rate it that highly.

Great shot!!!!

ERan.

One of the best photos on Photo.net. Thanks for showing us your tremendous nice work.

i dont like the title.. that cheapens the image.. but the image itself is a true work of art

I love this shot. Very intense and I love the lighting. I do feel that the sharpeness hurts this image in some ways. I'd soften her skin, especially around the eyes so that the eyes can really get all the attention that they deserve. A very striking portrait.

this is one of the strongest portraits i have seen on this site since i joined. i am curious to know about how you metered the freckles as it does appear that you had metered it first and then composed the image based on those settings. i have rated it the highest like many others. the nose appear a little overexposed but that is a very minor issue. perhaps you had used a bronzing foundation on the face upto the upper cheeks? would really like to know the technical details here.

Phenomenal photograph. Period.

dead like a plastic doll.

I love this picture. So sharp and sexy

Fake white-eye manipulation over and over and over. She's less in this photo than she is to some casual snap shooter.

I dont understand John's comment above? Is it that digital alterations to make the eyes pop out makes a photo ('snap') of this woman shopping in the supermarket a better photo?

 

It might make the photo more 'photo' like but the not necessarily a better image.

 

We all make tweaks to photos, filters etc.

Wonderful work! Since this is a critique, I will say that the one thing that bothers me however has nothing to do with your photographs, but the copyright font. I don't know why professional photographers always use this playful amateur typeface that takes away from the power of the image. I would suggest using a professionally designed typeface which would reflect the fluidity and form of your work, like the all popular Helvetica.

I also really like this shot..of course the eyes are fantastic.

 

If I may I have three comments.

 

1.The crop could be improved in my opinion, it is too tight at the top , I think the image would be even more striking with more of the face-head shown.

 

2.The out of focus highlighted nose is a bit distracting.

 

3.It looks like you have decided for a symmetrical look, but the hair on the left side is more in the face and partially covers the outside edge of the eye which creates a slight imbalance.

 

just my observations and of course others and primarily yourself may see it differently.

Otherwise I love it...

Reading through the comments, I believe much has already been said. I think the strongest part of this image comes from the eyes, they draw you in and it is hard to look away. Great job!

Outstanding and beautyfull ....great light

Hi Kim

I like it very much!!!

I think you've chosen a really corny title which really doesn't fit the subject nor does it really inform the viewer. Seems like you are trying to influence the viewer to react based on the ttile more than the photo. Perhaps the title tells us something about the photographer.

 

Never the less this photo is great though I'm a bit uneasy about your treatment of the eyes. I think you might want to play with some variations of this image dialing back the eye bleach or what ever you are doing.

 

I think it's a great start though. A very strong photograph of this individual.

 

 

Really fantastic image!!! Her eyes are captivating. Her shoulders are strong. The treatment is impeccable. This image draws you in, it is so beautifully intense. As I sit here looking at her, her eyes feel just slightly high in the composition. I feel like the image would be slightly better balanced with just about another half-inch of her forehead in the frame.

Amazing work,

Wade
