Nice use of DOF on these. The second one also makes a good b/w study.

Medium format, now I had a go at this once, struggled like hell with the viewfinder and the reversed image. I like #2 a great pose full of contemplation you might try cropping the street out of the top just to keep the focus on your girl. :O)

Details! Details! Which medium format? Did you scan the negs or prints? [Nice work, BTW.]

The camera is a Mamiya 645s with viewfinder (no pentaprism for now), so i'm forcd to carry my photo meter to take the light... not too bad since i've spent a lot of money on it and never used it too much. As the name of the model says she shots 6x4.5 negs. I've a 120 back and a polaroid one. these pics were taken using a 80mm f2.8 (the only optic i own for now). films: Fuji NPS 160Pro for color prints and Kodak TMax 100 for B/W. I've scanned the negs with a shitty Epson flatbed scanner. a bit of postwork in Photoshop.
