You chopped off part of her right eye and her eyes are at the edge of their sockets.  And you broad-lit her.

what works: the pose in general, half covered and learing with wrinkly sheets, and just a glimpse of her nipple- though not original...it's nice to look at and could be evocative if executed with a little more care...

what doesn't: the eye issue, the lack of contrast between her lips and the rest of her face and the inbalance caused by the "dead area" to the right of her head, there needs to be something more there- maybe if her head were nudged over a tiny bit toward the center.

WTF why are you so negative and wrong, he actually short lit her, so what, do you like it or what? I do.
Def - Broad lit cam on the same side as the light
      - Short lit cam on the opposite side as the light

Why are you picking on me?  If you have a different opinion, just voice it.

I guess Bey will have to tell us where he had the light but given the light on her left hand, I'd say it was straight on or slightly to the right of the camera.

What do you think about her eyes?

Check the catchlights.  The key looks to be camera left.

I also think that her head is turned too much.  The cutoff eye is weird.  And it's either her head's angle or there a lot of tension in her mouth.  Something looks off in her cheek.

I like the photo (but it should be marked 18+. wink)

Yeah, you're right.  I had to go get my reading glasses to see that.  I'll bet you're not working at 1280x1024. wink

I think it's great!!! The eye factor is a little obvious. And the nip peak should be marked 18+.

Ok, thanks guys and gals.



FYI, Paul wasn't "harsh" with his critique. Not to me, anyway.
