Sep 25 15 05:22 pm Link I guess I don't get the symbolism. None of the above... Sep 25 15 05:46 pm Link No. 4 tends to catch my eye... Sep 25 15 06:37 pm Link This shoot makes no sense to me. However, my not liking the shoot aside, there is zero impact on me by the images. Nothing jumps out and grabs me and demands my attention. The shoot feels empty to me. If that was your intent, then good job. Sep 25 15 08:15 pm Link Yep makes no sense. The composites are il-conceived and the lighting is poor. Sep 25 15 11:03 pm Link https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/39370044 18+ I like this one the most, I just wish you could crop in (maybe square or landscape?) and cut some of the extra negative space top and bottom!

I'm inclined to agree with your assessment and may dispatch the whole bunch of them forthwith.

The composites are multi-exposures by chance, I'm not sure about the ill-conceived. I'd be interested in hearing more from you on that. As for the lighting I'm not sure about it myself. The sun was being cooperative enough but the mask on the front of the lens may not have been the best on the second two. Relatively good definition and mood but a bit scruffy and dark, especially towards the edges, would be my own assessment on the lighting.

Yeah, it's kind of wasted, there's an issue with tighter work there somewhere as we've always avoided portraits - something i'm usually careful to include in work I do with people. It's gotten to the point it's bugging me so probably I'll try to address it if she's back in the area and we work together later this year or next. Sep 26 15 07:28 am Link |
