Hey guys and gals:

Just wanted some CC, since this is my first post in this forum. What would you have done differently and so forth?

Thanks

    It is great the way it is. the subject placement is very pleasing and leads you into the skyline. It would have more impact if her face was more visible and b&w lends itself nicely to some Topaz filters.

    Thanks, unfortunately I don't have a copy of Topaz, I only have the NIK collection.

    fantastic shot.
    I do wish her face was visible, and the pole wasn't sneaking a peak in front of her.

    pretty strong image! I love teh overall compositions..but ditto on the face..wish I could see it. A few small issues..
    1) the vignette is touch strong
    2) there is some processing artifact on her extended arm..it has a strong halo
    3) Also the extended arm is very dark compared the rest of her..almost look unatural..I would selectively give it some exposure.

    I agree with the other comments. I would have selected a different location without the railing behind her.

    Working on the photo right now, fixing vignette, I don't see the halo on her arm! at least on mu screen!?, arm is fixed exposure is the same as the rest.
    this was a impromptu shoot, I never met this girl and I just asked if I can snap away with a mobile model form! :) she was spinning, she wasn't posed as is.

    Thanks for your input

    Right place at the right time. It's a lovely photo. Love the B&W treatment here. Sometimes the thing that makes a photo is what you can't see. mwink.gif
