Tbh, I dont think its a very flattering portrait but I guess a lot depends on what you are trying to achieve here.
The pose, leaning over rigid arms with hunched up shoulders is never flattering for anyone, least of all women.
Ive read that its advisable especially with the fairer sex, to keep upper arms covered for portraits basically to avoid emphasis falling heavily on the area, as it does here.
Youve also totally lost her clothing to the shadows.
For me I think a much titghter crop would work better and be so much more flattering.
JMO of course.
I agree, the pose is not flattering - the woman looks very uncomfortable..... but depends what you were after. what time of day was it & what lighting did you use?
It was virtually dark beneath the canopy of trees and used ttlbl to try and make the background dark and not have excessive flash-she looks awkward *** she is clambering uphill across giant tree roots-but then she isnt a model shes my missus and was just experimenting.
