Description

Or at least friendship and perhaps admiration? Anyhow, there are more from this shoot to go but this is the last one in the initial batch. Total of 823 images and about 5 different looks, not bad for a 3 hour shoot I don't think.

What I appreciate technically about this image is the shadow line and the control of contrast. Shadow is defined but soft, the intended result of the beauty dish, and the contrast is dramatic but does not loose all the detail in the shadows. There is a general overlay layer happening here but I used a curved adjustment to only allow it to affect the image slightly - I really do not like general photoshop layers being applied to images that were supposedly shot under controlled conditions but in this case I feel it added a needed touch of style, I hope you agree. Thank you.

Wonderful image! Is the subject actually Russian? She kind of looks like she is from the Baltics.

I agree with all of your points on the lighting, plus I love her pose. Both of those factors enhance her fantastic shape. She is a very unique looking model Nice job.

The eye is taken on a pleasantly dizzying trip as one follows the curves and slopes of her form. The jacket and jeans come across really crisp and rich in texture. 823 images? Interesting is it how digital photography leads us to take far more images that when we were shooting on film.

I think your post work really softened and brought out beautiful color. Her blue jeans are so crisp and clear and her skin looks so soft.Excellent shot for sure
