Feeling a little indecisive today. Does this picture: https://www.modelmayhem.com/portfolio/pic/45137244 belong in here: https://www.gershonkreimer.com/index/void ? Much appreciated!

That speaks to how you feel about the image, no? Feb 19 19 08:49 pm Link No. It's pretty bland, and has neither a flow nor any sort of energy. It's just...there. The pose cuts off the model's left arm, making it look like it's amputated, and is unflattering around the mid-section. You have better, so this won't add anything to your portfolio.

I personally enjoyed the image, the monotone finish with it's subtle shading and lighting nuances gives the viewer a lot to take in . . . at first seemingly simple, but grows more complex the longer you view it . . . SOS Feb 20 19 07:15 am Link Thank you all for your comments. I am definitely not committed to this picture. I do like the delicate aspect of it, but I've come to realize that the hair tie kills it for me. Feb 21 19 08:11 am Link If you feel the image represents your work and expresses a thought, view or idea that you want to promote, then leave it. When you ask others, they never understand your reasoning and want you to bend to theirs. When you look a my portfolio, it looks helter-skelter. It is not until you read my profile and meet me that the wide variety of genres makes any sense.

Even art nudes should especially be posed for features and true mood versus forced movements, So i wouldn't add images that you can improve upon easily. May 29 19 02:22 pm Link |
