    Yuri,
    I'd say #1 is the best (for me, that is), but that bight colored framed picture in the left-top corner creates a huige distaction with the pale tones of the fine blond girl and the rest of the background...

    So I vote for #2 :-) Was it a sudio shot or just a dark room and a small window?

    Glad to see you've been busy :-)
    Cheers! thumb.gif

    I love number 2 and I would love to see 3 with a bit more contrast?! Looks good though and I trust your rendition.:D

    She's beautiful and you've done a super job capturing her. I like all of them.

    It feels like there's fake blur on the first, her hair.

    Excellent work!

    Beautiful shots of a beautiful girl Yuri... She looks a little like Kate Moss...

    I'd love to have the courage to ask strangers to model for me... We see so many photogenic people on the streets, they pass by and they're gone...

    I admire that you manage to capture their images in this way...

    Just interested - what's the ratio of people who agree vs. those who refuse?
    Cheers, John

    Ditto! I love #2 and I like more contrast on B&W but that's more of a personal preference.

    Yuri,

    Your photos seem to provide a glimpse into the very soul of your models. A rare talent, and gift.

    I like all of these Yuri, but I especially like the use of the yellow background in the first shot. It works so well with her eyes and complexion. Very nice.

    The black backgrounds also work nicely.

    The B&W suffers in my view only because after seeing her in color. B&W just does not seem ideal for her blondeness.

    Simply lovely work. I always like your lighting and posing. Soft, yet sharp at the same time.
