    The subject is nothing special, but with some changes the picture can become something worth to show. If this place is not far from where you live, I'd advice you to go there again. Starting with composition: walk 10-20 meters left from the position from where you took this one, then the mill will be on the left side and the pole on the right, instead of in front (disturbing), you'll give balance to the picture. Then about the sky and lighting: take the picture in early morning, maybe there will be mist, or at sunset, which would give warm tone, sunny afternoon with blue sky and a few clouds, or just before arriving storm. If you are able to do that, I can't wait your next try. Good luck.

    You have so many fantastic pictures in your portfolio, that this is almost an insult to your talent. The brightest parts of the skin are overexposed and the overall look is like from the 90's motorbike magazine. You have some excellent work, so just go on and concentrate in your work. My photography is something completely different, so unfortunately this is all the advice I can give.

    I had a look at your portfolio and you have a few great pictures there. This one is good too. One, let's say a mistake here is the left cheek, which is so much overexposed, that it is hard to define the line between it and the wall behind. Also the background not being straight disturbs a bit. The last thing, in which I pay lot of attention in my b/w portraits, are the details. Your model is beautiful and the earring, in my opinion, is a useless detail, wich distracts from the most important point - her eyes. I hope this helps. Keep up the good work.

    I like this style, but Craig is right. I also find the necklace a bit disturbing, but that's just my personal taste, I like portraits to be simple with minimum amount of unnecessary details. A few more tries and you'll get it. Good work.

    First of all, could you tell me which camera you used, which lens, which aperture, shutter speed, ISO, what time of the day you shot the picture and what was the weather like? Just answer these and I'll give you the rest of the answers.
  1. It's interesting to see that some people are able to rate this picture as "average", obviously anonymous. Probably because it is not super sharp with flashing colours and you haven't spent hours using Photoshop...

    Extremely boring, but great control of light. Relaxes the eye to look at this portrait. I'd prefer it anyway without the shadow, but if you decided it like this, it's ok.

    I can't find even one thing, which is done well on this picture. All the points of basic rules of photography are ignored: composition/geometry, focus/out of focus, colours, sharpness etc... Looks like compact camera snapshot of a family member taken in living room, which shouldn't end up even in a photo album in the cupboard. I wanted to rate this 1/1, but ratings below 3 aren't counted.

    Kind of you succeeded. It might look like a newspaper print from the 40's. It lacks contrast and sharpness. The digital grain on black looks quite horrible if I may say so. Also you have cut her legs and instead, left lots of space above her head. What might help, is to have a look at 40's and 50's actor portraits and fashion photography. Good luck.

    I won't rate your picture because it wouldn't be fair. The subject and composition are good, just that you can't make digital picture into BW only taking away the colours. The best solution, in my opinion, would be to shoot with BW film. But, because it is a digital picture, it needs some Photoshop. But be careful not to over do it. I hope this helps.
