My friend was kind enough to dress up and model for me as I practiced balancing available light and flash during a sunset. I wanted a real warm, golden feeling for most of these shots, so quite a bit of my amateur photoshoping was applied... any C&C is really appreciated! Thanks for looking...

    I like #6. It has that "How did he do that?" quality.

    Thanks for all the comments! Yeah, I think #3 is a clear winner. The others aren't doing it as much for me as they were last night when I posted them. That always happens to me... I get excited about an image I've been staring at and working on, and when I come back to it, it doesn't work as well as I thought it did. I've been doing a lot of free shoots for friends the last few weeks trying to build a portfolio, I'm glad to see there's one from this group that stands out and can be included! Thanks again for sharing your thoughts...

    Well dont be to hard on yourself as the others are pretty damn good as well. But #3 is definitely a cut above in that series..

    Cheers
