    I think the first two are a bit over exposed but that last one is stunning!!!!thumb.gif

    WOW...........................................I really like them, yes they are a little overexposed but that could be part of the package, Right? Keep those creative juices coming. Your model has fantastic eyes and you did a great job of showing them, some would argue that the hair is distracting but i feel that it draws one in and really makes those gorgeous eyes pop!

    I like the first image, a little overexposed but as i stated above, that could be your intention.
    Second image is way too hot for my eyes, i think you need to drop the exposure a tad then it will be more presentable
    Third image....................Perfect in both composition and exposure. Fantastic use of the mirror, where did you borrow this idea from?? I love it and will be sure to use it in one of my own images in the future!

    I'm thinking that was a legitimate process on the first two and in my opinion it definately works! All 3 are fantastic. However, #3 is top-shelf material for sure! thumb.gif

    Welcome! clap.gif

    Nice models, poses and expressions! thumb.gif

    #1: Watch for sun glare, also you may want to gel your flash.

    #2: nice attempt at highkey, but as many have already said, she came out a bit to hot on her right side.

    #3: Great "lifestyle" shot, I even love the tilt.

    Cheers! iloveyou.gif

    I think all three are great.

    The first one could be any magazine fashion shot from the late eighties to the late nineties, and into today. With a little more space on one side or the other, I see it as a print advertisement for pretty much anything; taking the season into account, of course.

    The second one could be a cosmetics ad from the nineties to today. It is a tad hot, but I like it all the same; it's my favorite.

    The third is a great glamour shot. It could also be an advertisement for lingerie, perfume, a bath product or any show you'd see on SpikeTV.

    Very well done on all three. thumb.gif

    The Third one does it for me. Love the Bokeh in the foreground.
