    It's not!

    It was dramatically underexposed, and pulling it up brought out the ISO-noisy splotchiness. :)

    She's very classic for just 14 years old. :)

    Jaaaaaaaaaaaailbait.

    Georgeous model, georgeous shot. I hear ya about the ISO pulling though. I was shooting dance photography the other day and the lighting designer enjoys dark design... makes my life a living hell having to pull 1 to 1.5 stops at 1600 ISO... *shudder*

    Keep up the good work!

    I agree that it's a nice shot of a beautiful young woman. The processing on the skin is too much for me...to plastic.

    15524779-Ti.gif I am by no means a pro, or maybe I am not even qualified, but it doesn't even look like the same person in the reflection. She is a pretty girl, and that picture makes her look fake.

    Kind of the point, actually. Doesn't look like the same person? Hrm... how so? Blotchy? Different colors?

    Ever looked at a magazine? :)

    now that i've looked at it some more i'm thinking two things.

    i think i would've liked her skin better without being touched.
    on the other hand, i kinda like how she looks different in the reflection.

    Great work Owen!
    Did you do a lot of work in PS?
    The skin seems a bit 'artificial' this maybe because of too much Postwork. In some of my recent posts I shared the technique of my work with face skin...
    Did you see it?
    I like the composition. But this cut...
    Anyway, very good work. Mycongratulations,
    Spasibo,
    Yuri

    Excellent shot! But it is a little too much skin work for my liking. And the reflection doesn't have any skin work doen to it so it looks like two different people. Just my opinion of course.

    Hi, Owen
    Great photo!clap.gif
    I would like to see the original photo.
    I like to take a picture of how I seen the subject.
    Is Julia available for paid photo shoots?
    Is she listed with any model sites?

    Take Care,

    Nice work, nice model, but way too much on the skin. Someone said plastic... I agree with that.... everything else is Perfect!
