A dramatic view

Critiques appreciated.

Beautiful. I think that, this beautiful image would be even more attractive if you had removed the glass table, and she looks wonderful. Regards.

Now to my mind if you removed the glass table it would be a travesty... so there you have the yin and yang of that. I love the reflection, I love the light and I want the bench in my studio I do... A very fine portrait. -r-

This was taken in the National Portrait Gallery. Both the table and the love seat are in a rest area used by visitors. The light is from an off camera battery powered flash (SB800).

I love the composition AND THE TABLE STAYS :-).

my only criticism is the colour of dress and the seat are so similar,

but not the same, I find it bothers me everytime I look at it.

The red shoes etc are great, love them.

from what u said bout location. I am sure this must

have been an impromptu shot, and full range of clothes werent

available ;-)

could you have changed the carpet! im not keen

Generally a nicely worked photograph.

This was a formal photo shoot, this is a model, the clothing, shoes, etc, were picked for this shoot, and her makeup was done by a professional make up artist. Most of this shoot was with natural light. This image was not.

 

The intent of this image was to introduce a dramatic/glamourous look using spectral light and chromatic colors.
