i too think this is fantastic,
especially as you say its your first real try,
the only thing i can think of is the background highlight over the left shoulder, slightly distracting, possibly darken it down to give a little more ballance, if you cover it up her face really jumps out at you......
but its only a small niggle
Well let me add my compliments to the the others, it's a really beautiful shot and the exposure is spot on.
I just find the overall composition a little disquieting. The angle of the head is lovely, but I find it at odds with the space you've left on the right and the shot doen't feel quite balanced to me, as it is it leaves me wondering why you left the space on the right.
I've done a quick rotate to try to convey what I mean.
I'm not advocating you do this btw, just something to bear in mind with future posing sessions. I'll get out of here now before I get lynched.
hi Ribby
very pretty daughter, very photogenic, i can only echo what others have said, a great portrait. Beautifully lit, but i personally think that the catchlights(maybe a big window) is perhaps a little too large, and seems to take away from her lovely blue eyes.
great stuff.
Excellent portrait - makes a truly beautiful shot, I dont think the angle detracts from the shot myself, I think it adds informality to the image making it look far more natural - adds to the impression that your daughter is totally relaxed and comfortable (IMHO).
Honestly cannot fault it - beautiful subject, excellent colour, and a gentle softness in the lighting makes this a great capture:thumb:
Superb, I would be proud to have taken that shot :smilenod: .
If I had to be picky I would have to agree with Matty/Boon , I had a little tinker with the photo and it does work a little better with the catch-lights reduced in size and the ear cloned out.
I just love this as it is, she is such a pretty model with a captivating smile. I love the richness of the tones and the focus is perfect. Stunning shot
Wow, you should be really proud of yourself that is a gorgeous portrait of your daughter, there is an unusual depth in her eyes for someone so young which you've captured perfectly. She's a stunning girl. Well done on both counts!!
I have no problem myself with the angle of the head or the ear showing. I would clean up the stray hairs though, if for no other reason than my wife would tell me to.
