    Nice Daniel her eyes are just a bit too soft for me. SInce you used such a shallow DOF I would like to see her beautiful eyes tack sharp..

    You focused on her forehead.
    She'd be much prettier without black circled around her eyes.
    I'd remove her complexion issues, but that's just me.
    I don't like the yellow version.

    I do like your angle. Very gothic.

    I hope you don't mind an amateurish attempt at trying some of 4labs' and Owen's ideas. I'm still learning this stuff. Let me know if you don't like it and I'll take it right down.

    is this called macroportrait?-

    I like the tone (maybe a different color because it goes with the different type of pose)-

    I'm glad she's posing for you-

    cute gal-

    owen, I agree re the black circles; my daughter does it and I don't like it, but, whatever-

    lol i had on my 50mm and that was the fatherst away i could get w/o backing the comp. chair into the wall... and that was one of the only angles i could fit most of her face in from that far away:D


    thanks for all the advice guys, keep it coming, hopefully now she'll start posing a little more.iloveyou.gif

    She is a very beautiful young girl. You are most fortunate in having such a pretty model at your disposal (reluctant or not.)

    I do agree that the eyes really need to be tack sharp for this to work better. Luckily as she becomes more willing then you will have lots of other chances. :):
