a friend's lab...comments appreciated, thanks!

excellent portrait

I like your portrait, its filled with emotion. The expression in her face is perfect. Technically, not as sharp as it could be. You should get used to shooting at ISO 400 or higher to make sure your shots come in sharp. I find most portraits nicer in B&W, but that's just me. I just find the colors detracting and the lighting is more pronounced when in monochrome. Your photos are looking better as you go on. Keep on improving!

Mary,

 

Thank you!

 

Max,

 

Thank you! This time I have to say I like the color version better. Her warm brown and even the red collar are appealing to me. I do like black and white images...just prefer color for this one. It's good to have such constructive give and take.

That's great if you still like color Dick. I just have a tendency to prefer some, no, almost all photos in B&W. You'll find I may start to push this on others (you), but just ignore it, both B&W and color are equally great.
