Very nice Jim. Outside work is relatively new for you, no? At any rate, it is a very interesting step that you are taking here. The narrow depth of field is effective also. The subtle range of pastel-like colours certainly suite the image too. There is an overall grace to the image that I find very appealing.

I don't do much outside work because I can not control the weather, the temperature, or the light as much as I want to, but I have done some other work outside (see http://photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=737948 and

http://photo.net/photodb/folder?folder_id=735717 ). I also admit that I have trouble getting up early enough to catch the good light.

 

 

One of the intents of this shoot was to get some drama in the images using natural lighting/shadowing. This image is a moderately successful attempt at this, note the slight shadowing on her face.

Glad to see that there are some great shots from this set. The first few I saw were just ok. You have a great setting and a beautiful model and now it looks like you also ended up with some great shots from the shoot. Congrats.
