Hi Gareth, Thanks for taking the time to review and pointing out some areas for improvement. I do have a series of shots with this lighting, with the lamps in different locations, so will see what else I have. Not sure I have one with the red gel at the back, which is a shame as it sounds like...

Hi Simon, Thanks for the feedback. Not sure I agree with what you are saying about the hair, however take the point about the stomach etc. Here is another attempt: Frances27b by Dr_Drake, on Flickr Also, take the point about the light swirls, this was just experimenting. Thanks...

Agreed. Perhaps the first attempt was a little OTT, so will go back to the drawing board. Thanks again for commenting.

Great shot. Nice composition, with good detail on the pier and great exposure. Nice work!

School boy humor aside.. :) This is a cracking shot... You also have a great collection on your Flickr account too... :) Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Gaz. Appreciate you taking the time to drive by and comment.. :)
