Another pose of the three sisters, this time in landscape. Adjusted exposure, that was about it. I am not sure if I should crop a bit more from the right hand side to give it a little better balance. What do you think? Also, while the photo is level, is the "slant" of the pose too distracting?

Any other CC welcome. Other pose discussed here: http://digital-photography-school.co...1-sisters.html

Thanks,

I like the portrait framing better. I also think the slant you mentioned coupled with the framing being just a touch off makes the other shot the better of the two. I also think the lighting is off, like the color was warmed in post processing, or the sun was setting and thew the color off.

Thanks for the feedback. You are correct, the sun was setting. I can cool it down some in pp...might just try that.

very attractive subjects......

i think the pose is good....that slant adds a bit of interest and leads my eye from face to face......i think you're on the right track thinking that a sliver off the right would improve the composition......but, if you do that you have to sacrifice either a slice off the bottom or top as well...and that would make them look too crowded in the field..so, i would leave it as is......


it is a tad warm and it has the women on either side looking a bit ruddy.....and you're right.....that's a fairly easy fix in post......while you're at it.....add the tiniest bit of tweak to the contrast as well.....it's a little low now and it's "flattening" their faces......

i do want to suggest that the next time you shoot a group portrait that you might want to go for a slightly wider depth of field......at 4, i see that the model to the right's eyes are a bit out of focus......


all in all, it's a nice, intimate portrait of sisters and i am sure they are happy with the results.....
