Priviet, dear friends!
Just 4 4 your comments and critique...
This girl has just fantastic eyes...
I had to do *a lot* of work in PS with her skin - deleted dots (such black/gray dots) with healing brush to save the skin structure (I deleted every dot - a lot of dots... oooh). She didnt use make-up so I said 'dont worry'...

    Amazing Yuri!

    She is a very pretty girl and I think it shows best in #4. You work truly amazes me!

    Yuri,
    I, amongst many others, am a huge fan of your work.
    Unfortunatley in this case I'd say you overprocessed your images a bit.
    I understand the skin problems and such, but to my taste you oversoftened them too much. There is also a rather big halo in the b/w image.
    Bottom line: they *cry* "photoshop"..rolleyes1.gif
    And the last one looks plain bland/gray - maybe because you spoiled us rotten with your usual softening:-)
    Anyway, I hope you don't mind a little friendly critiquene_nau.gif
    Cheers!1drink.gif

    I love 1&2. I don't love the color experiment of 4. But the composition and color of #1 among your best, the kind that makes me wonder if you had to sell your soul to the devil in order to be able to do it.
    If not now, when?

    I really like what you did in #4 Yuri, but you could maybe have left a bit more eye color.

    Not only does she have pretty eyes, but also a pretty mouth...

    Hi Yuri!

    Great shots, interesting model!

    I don't know, somehow I don't like #4. It makes her look kind of waxy, or like she has been ill for the last days. Its the desaturated colors, but I think even with stronger colors that picture would not be interesting to my eye.
    Her expression seems to be slightly annoyed. This can be sweet, but I think it looks boring in this shot.

    I love the first one! The color compostion with the black background, her white clothes and her cold, bright eyes is stunning! This is really beautiful!
    It looks so cold, so clean, but there is another part of it I can't quite describe. I would try it with "not quite from this world".
    I find myself looking on that picture again and again. Its fascinating, and it touches something in me, it just "has it"! :):

    Regards,
    Andreas
