    last one fenomenal :) her smile seems to be just hmmmm fake or forced in the 2nd shot. 3r and 4th are great.

    what lens are you using and at what aperture ? is this you 85 at 1.8? or 50 1.8 ?

    thanks !

    I like them all.
    #2 I like how she pops out the nice green background. Feels 3d.
    Flash looks like it did a good job on #3.
    #4 is my favorite then #1.
    She has a very pretty smile I think it looks the same in 1 and 2.

    Hary,

    Many thanks for the kind words!!!

    The EXIF is intact with all images. I believe all images were shot with my Sigma 70-200 2.8 EX DG HSM.

    I like them.

    Let me ask about #4. Is the focus on her nose and off a bit on her eyes? I may be wrong. probalby could only tell at 100%. Also, what would you think of cropping this just a bit so she is not quite so much in the center. Rule of thirds.

    Again, great shots. I just got into doing these kind of shots and appreciate how difficult it is to get it right.

    Josh,

    #4 is in focus, but is centered. I was a rebel and broke the rules. :ivar

    You are right... It is difficult to get right. Lots of things to pay attention to.

    Goes to show you can break the rules and it still looks great!
