Hey there.

Another one from me.

Canon EOS 400D with Kit objective.

I really like this shot.
Like the point of view.
Like the colors.
Like her eyes and the way she looks.
I chose a square format. Think it works best for this one.

For the lighting i took the normal room lights (livingroom) and an old 1000W Foto/Video light i found at my granddads house.
I flooded the ceiling with the 1000W to her left.



I really look forward to read your critics.
Hope you like the shot.

Great! Another flipped image, or did you frame it this way initially?

Warm, rich colours, creative lighting, superb DoF and focus.

Only quibble someone may have is the shadowing falling to the right of her nose, and the left of her face looking a little hot.

To me those do not detract in the slightest from what is a beautiful, imaginative and creative portrait. Those elements are so much more important than small technical details.

Gorgeous.

I like this, the colors are lovely and the pose is unique. Only issues I have are the hands, they look kind of creepy; and the hair on her left shoulder could have been straightened out before the shot. Although, it is the hands that bother me the most.

I agree with the hands comment. I'm never a fan of hands in the crotch for portraits lol. I think the image/ idea is cute. and because of her smile seeming candid i think the hair being slightly out of place is okay in this shot. If anything I might have actually made her hair on the opposite side a little messy as well.

I think her face might be a little over-exposed on the left side. However, I love how her eyes look and the colors in the background
