John Peri 1,007 Posted March 18, 2009 Maybe it's better full format, but I am a littel disturbed by the burned out areas in the window ... would appreciate your point of view, thanks. Link to comment
timzeipekis 5 Posted March 18, 2009 I prefer the larger format John, I think the allure of the red dress is enough to keep my eye from being pulled away to the window. The dark black frame of the bed is where my eye starts and then scans to the left. Beautiful Model! Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted March 18, 2009 Thank you Tim, admittedly I also like the full format, but I'm a bit dubious about the window effect .. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted March 18, 2009 superb this John... the hair and the legs is perfect here... Link to comment
jorgetagle 0 Posted March 18, 2009 both versions are so good how ever the first one is the best for me regards Jorge Luis Link to comment
sv solomon photography 0 Posted March 18, 2009 With regard to the full version, there is visual tension between the ornate railing on the right and the glaring, cluttered window panes on the left. Your model is centered between these two elements, and when that is combined with her angular pose, they compete with your subject. Including the windows in the image also degrades the glamor aspect of this shot. The brightness and busy-ness of the left side doesn't help the overall image. I must give credit that the window has done its job just by letting in some wonderful light and you have used it well. Keeping the composition simple gives due attention to your elegant model. After all, she is the reason for the picture in the first place. Link to comment
morophaenixmau 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Also I, my friend, prefer the cropped version: is more enjoyable!...Ciaomau! Link to comment
setsail728 14 Posted March 18, 2009 I prefer the cropped version also. Truth be told the image and pose of this very attractive model in the red dress really keeps the attention on her and not the window in the full format version. I think if the subject matter wasn't as strong, the windows might prove a significant distraction. But not here. FWIW Link to comment
jean-jacques 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Hi John. Whouaaaaa, super model, and great photo. This is a great photo, beautiful model, a perfect sensual instant, sexy dress and shoes, and a very good lighting. Best regards. Jean-Jacques. Link to comment
eimages 0 Posted March 18, 2009 is for the full frame, beautiful setting, adds a lot of context and contrast to the image. Beautifully done. Best, Alex Link to comment
JPPhoto1664880217 2 Posted March 18, 2009 I prefer the cropped version. Both are quite good, but the cropped version focuses my eye on the model, the dress, the blanket, and the head of the bed. These elements give this image contrast (both B&W and color) that I find very pleasing. This works exceptionally well with the blond model. All elements here reinforce one another. Give my compliments to the beautiful model. Jim Phelps Link to comment

Pierre Dumas 258 Posted March 19, 2009 Only this one is excellent, you're right about the burned out effect John! PDE Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted March 19, 2009 Many thanks to all. Leonardo, many thanks too. I tried this actually and began with it, and I agree absolutely composition wise, but the window area lacks definition which troubled me ... Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted March 19, 2009 Hi John, and if you burn all the background of the window ... and recovered wood edge? what do you think? Link to comment
John Peri 1,007 Posted March 19, 2009 Why not Alessio, many thanks. However, manbe the view gives more life and soul to the picture, but it's certainly another possiblity and an interesting one, yes, thank you again. Link to comment
wane 0 Posted March 19, 2009 I prefer the "large" version because it's a delight for the neighbors and...a tonic for the troops. Greetings to the model and to the little red dress. Eric Link to comment
sideris 0 Posted March 19, 2009 John, the version you've posted is the best for me, as composition mainly, more clean, remarking the clever harmony created between her lovely shapes and the black curved lines of metal. I agree with you about those burned areas of the original framing disturbing the context, here one can appreciate better the very effective combination of colors -red, black- and her delicate skin, btw, the angle of framing is perfect. She is very expressive, not only gorgeous, and her compromise with the camera is evident, a great model. Link to comment
fabrizio_r 0 Posted March 19, 2009 Hallo John, very good shot! Personally oi prefer the large version with the window burned Very beautiful and so expressive model Ciao, Fabrizio Link to comment
ian_crawford 0 Posted September 23, 2009 very sexy, great color, love the full screen version, windows add a new dimension to it, don't harm the shot at all in my opinion. Link to comment
