I let it fall, my heart ...

I ll never get tired to wonder why peoples like just press some casual rate

without start their brain before do that ... well i think the brain was made

right for be used, so tank you for use it

Fabrizio, subjecting oneself to the rating system has never been that useful to me.  Granted, one is likely to get greater responses, but not the necessary comments to qualify those same ratings.  I frequently post just for critiques and comments myself any more.  If you make it a habit to be active in critiquing others work, it will increase the amount of response you are  likely to receive.

This is a better than average portrait to my eyes, from a more unique vantage point.   The lighting is good across your subject, tones are pleasing, and sharpness is fine.  Personally, I would have placed the model a bit differently, and might have left less in focus, but that is me and probably reflects my rating of 6 instead of 7.

Keep up the fine work, and she is a lovely model.  B/R

................. I concur with Dave on the rating issue. I no longer bother with ratings as those who rate, seldom comment and so I learn little.

You have chosen a very unusual angle here, yet it works well. She is gorgeous and you have captured her beautifully. Good lighting and skin tones.

The strap going out of the frame (top right) draws my eye away from her, but that is my only little nitpik.

Good image......... well done.

this is absolutely operatic, Fab! the high key works for the dress and the diva atmosphere, and like she's looking up into the stage spotlight, or directly into the sun! one of the most gorgeous faces of ever seen. bravo bravo bravo exquisite ;-} dp

Beautiful work with a nice title, Fabrizio!

I'm another who has opted out of the ratings game ! She is a very beautiful model and deserves to be praised . I like the V.P. , and pose , my only little niggle , is the light coloured ribbon leading out of the top right . An excellent portrayal of a classic Lady ! Well done . Bill

Bello ed elegante questo B/W, ottimo il punto di vista!
