Hi my friends!

It's been far too long since my last post, but I was busy as usual.
Anyway, I brought some new pics with me... :)

Hope you like them, I tried to give them a slight 1960s like touch.
The pictures were taken in a hotel in Hungary, just before we had dinner. :)

Waiting... and dreaming...

    good stuff. i like the first and second, but the third one is very soft.

    maybe i should try stuff like this with my models. . .

    or, maybe not.

    Hi!

    Thank you so much for your comments! You are a bunch of very nice people! ;)

    @binghott:
    Yes, the third one is soft. A lot of the pics in this series turned out soft, seems that I'm unable to hold the camera steady enough with the Sigma flash mounted on top of it, especially in portrait orientation. And the room was so small that I had to kneel on the bed for the shots. :D

    I don't know why, but I got a lot of noise too. I shot ISO 200 and some pictures are incredibly noisy at 100%. headscratch.gif

    Binghott, how do you like this effect? It's RedPawnMedia's Bleach Bypass filter. Haha, I always try to salvage those not-so-good-shots somehow. I don't mind the softness with this filter.
    Bleached!!

    Another question: On your monitors, are the skin tones too bright? Is anything burned out, or very close to that? I ask because I had these pictures printed at a lab an d they turned out horrible. Skin was blown out, completly white on a lot of shots.... Still trying to figure that out. The pictures look right on my calibrated monitor. headscratch.gif

    Thanks again for your kind remarks!

    that filter helps with the soft picture, but it's still too soft for my liking.

    they look fine to me, but i don't know a lot along the lines of printing and such.
