Very close. A design element with jewelry, props, furniture and/or background would have sent the message home. A third light separating her from the background even more or accentuating, sculpting parts of her would've helped as well. Overall, nice, clean positive feeling image.

You've captured a LOT of hair in this image. Unfortunately, I feel disorganization and clutter from this one. Your other images, even of grundgy concepts, I like much much more.

What an interesting subject. The photo is over-sharpened for my taste.

I don't mind the dog not making eye contact. I do think that the view of the person behind the girl diminishes this otherwise very powerful image. Is there a chance that you're willing to spend a little time in post to remedy it? I would love to see the effect.

 

 

I wonder if a more impactful expression from the model could have helped more in conveying the message. I like the design of the lighting. The background/set/structure(whatever it is), is certainly interesting and helped to draw me in. Not quite sure on how I feel about the edge light spilling on the subject's nose. I kind of wish it didn't.

 

Very clean, crisp, classic portrait. Somehow, after seeing the whole of your portrait gallery, I wanted to suggest the experimenting and applying of more dramatic lighting in your portraiture, as you have done in your nudes. I feel that portraiture can too, at times, benefit from some dramatic lighting in evoking the senses and setting mood, as you have done so well in your nude series. Thanks for sharing.

 

well composed!

 

 

Beautiful, timeless portraiture.

Your self-portrait has interesting composition and lighting, given limited resources. It has depth and is quite appealing. New to this arena but not to photography perhaps? I'm anxious to see more of your work. Thanks for sharing.

In your portfolios, you show an admirable sense of composition and understanding of light. This image however, appears a misfortune. The background seems to clash with her, and makes this image feel top-heavy. I hope that the truly nice ones are on the way(?)

:-)

At first glance, this image was very inviting and alluring. I was curious as to why I was attracted to it. A few seconds passed when I realized that you've captured a near mirror image of the face of the "Mona Lisa". Intentional perhaps? Beautiful, howbeit.

A striking image! The asymmetry adds sense of direction and determination. It feels complete in its simplicity. My eyes can't help but to flow from its eye to the point of the beak and beyond. I do miss seeing a bit of detail in the shadow area. Any chance that an on camera flash would've reached the length of the EF 300?

I dig the retro feel of this picture and much like the angle of view. The composition is satisfying. However, if I had my way, I'm wanting to see a more dynamic flow of the model. Would you have more from this curious series?
