sorry not crazy keen on these images. they look a bit harsh for my rose tinted spectacles, but iv'e had a look at your website and theres some really really good photo's there. i particularly like the ice cream shot!

Thanks for your view. I think i was going for the kinda harsh look with the location I had. I appreciate what your saying though.

I have to agree with marko400d, they are a bit harsh for my liking too, but then I agree with Gary... gorgeous model you have! The first would be the best, but try a different crop

I do like the model and prefer the first shot to the others. In my grumpy old man mode, I don't like seeing all the underwear peeking out of her tops. That's probably a very old fashioned view.

Because as you say you are going for the harsher type shot - how about trying some in B&W ?

I actually like number 4 the best!

I might try some b&w ones later.. gotta shot something else later tonight. It was mainly a lighting test and experimenting with different ways of lighting i.e. clamshell ect.. and i got my nice new skyports which worked a charm.

Thanks, i put one sb26 behind her which made her have a white glow around.
