Moni is Sari

Sorry for the really bad pun. She's also belly dancer and gorgeous dress model.

This is Moni, obviously an Indian model who was a genuine pleasure to work with. Two concepts, two fashion all in one shoot.

Click the first image and like that.

Nice work , with some comments .

1. The lion and model, I think that the lion pulls a lot of attention.. On the other hand it creates tension/ contrast (paws vs hands)
2. Nice compo, but I seem to notice blue hair. Is that a reflection ?
3. Ok, but I don't see the added value of the wall on the right and some pieces of it.
4. Ok, and the background is not disturbing....
5. No, that is not it. Seems like see was caught by surprise . Also the flash reflections on the paint of the door are disturbing the overall atmosphere of the picture and highlights the impression of a snapshot/paparazzi.
6. No, very massive wall compared to the model.
7. No, the breast and left eye are not flattering the model.

Of course that is my personal opinion for what it is worth.

As always, thanks for the detailed C&C shooter.

My thoughts:

1. To me the Lion is part of the image both as ambience and as a Yin/Yang sort of thing.
2. What you're seeing is sunlight reflecting off the white sidewalk through the sheer blue veil.
3. I agree the wall isn't integral but there was no way to crop this without putting her on the extreme edge. My mistake in comp when I took the shot.
4. One of my favorites of the day.
5. Can't argue with you and at least you didn't use the "S" word I hate so much.
6. In looking at it, you're correct. I need to go back and crop more from the left to get rid of more wall.
7. How about this one?
