I'm not too good with photoshop just yet...this picture was a bit dark so I just added some light....I've been staring at it so much I dont even know what I think anymore....lets here what everyone's got!

You know if she was weary the right garb she and the rest of the shot could almost pass for being in Hawaii. Maybe you are in Hawaii here?

How old is your model? Seems about 16, esp in this particular photo. Perhaps she had more of the 'night on the town' look in the other shots.....

That's interesting. Simply put, it doesn't look natural, I can tell that you pushed things in post-processing. However, that doesn't mean that the end result isn't interesting. I rather like the effect. My only real issue is with the dof. I would have seen the background more blurry.

The shot was actually in Miami Beach...the model (my little sister :-) ) is actually only 14! I do agree with seb though...the background should have been more blurry....still learning!

The picture is distorted. Looks like you were standing close at wide angle and with her leaning into the camera doesn't help. The surrounding are a bit too busy as well.

She is photogenic. Keep working on projects together
