See technical details. Thanks for your comments. If negative, please

say why and how to improve please.

everything works so well here, Julian. You've pulled all the right earthtone colors imo, down to the lip! Blue accents r terrific! Elbow triangle might need a bit more soft.

Thanks Michael. I agree about the elbow.

I like the pose, the colours and the composition with the forest background. Great model too! Happy new year, Stamoulis.

Julian - beautiful model, lovely smile, well presented. But I don't like the way you blurred the bg. It doesn't look even close to lens blur/bokeh and simulating this effect is quite difficult. Overall I like this image.

Best regards

Nice capture of this beautiful smiling model

Hello Oswald,

 

I agree it does not look anything like lens DOF bokeh - neither is it intended to emulate bokeh. Thanks for your comment. Much appreciated.
