Dear Sue, it's a very good portrait and very well processed in b&w. Like the composition too. The more or less diagonal pose works very well here. However, I think the arms attract a little bit too much attention. I also would have liked her eyes somewhat more open. having said that I'm looking forward seeing more of your work.

 

regards,

Ton

there are a lot of these around. I think this is one of the better ones. However a bit more contrast could improve it some more.

great work, not a whole lot more you can say

I agree with Dennis, there is no need for the use of HDR. HDR should just be the means to an end and not an end in itself as is true of all techniques. It's indeed a lovely shot.

Dear Kelly,

I don't think this is very flattering. The light is much too hard. Looking in your portfolio I've seen that you can do a lot better. So why such a rush?

love Paris, Know Paris very well; great nightshot. You should lose the flare and dustparticles however

Dear Grant, it's a nice subject. However, you should be more careful when you prepare shots like this. The lighting is off, sharpness is off and most importantly it's not very flattering on her. When women take the trouble to pose for you like this the least you could do is photograph them as perfect as possible (i.e without any imperfections). I'm sorry but you didn't succeed in that.

With a model like this you could do better, a whole lot better.

nice colors. It would improve a lot tough if you would crop out the background

sure would't mind having this one framed on my wall. Great one.

Beautiful portrait; nice tonality and carefully cropped composition. It has a certain classical feel about it. 6/6

sure do like it. Perfect lighting, ncie long exposure. Atrractive colors and perspective. Good one.

whoa Oscar. This is a very nice black&white image. Nice tonality and composition. Maybe you should clone out the moped on the lower left. Like to see more like this one.

Clive, you're wrong. I think you did the right thing in taking just the four. what you're left with is a strong image wich works very well. Nice job.

Dear Sarka,

it's a very good portrait. Beautiful and rich black&white. Tightly cropped and strong composition. DOP is perfect with a beautiful use of the background.

Perfect job

it's a very appealing portrait. The backgroundcolor enhances this.Good job

it's a very nice double portrait. Also the somewhat tilted pose works very good here. The lighting tough is a bit strong for my taste. Also I think the knee distrats. But apart from that a very good image

Alex, I like the colors which work very well here. I think that it could use some darkening down tough.

But what doen't work for me is the tilted perspective. it doesn't add anything to the image, rather the opposite.

Great shot, altough a bit static. Like the tonality too. Minor point: you should crop a few millimeter at the right side

Danielle, you did a great job here. I know from experience how hard it can be to get this right. Can't fault anything. Great job, superb lighting.

It's a nice one Oscar. Keep up the good work

Denis,

 

good black&white portrait; perfect model

Dear Nick,

 

it's a nice picture with a lot of atmosphere. But I just don't understand why you did cut of the bench. Also, I suspect it would have benefitted from a slightly lower vieuwpoint
