Private

[GB1]

Just a warm up shot, but curious if the Private sign adds anything?

Excellent shot.

IMHO the sign adds a touch of interest, as to say private property about the model's natural beauty. The dark line around her hand is distracting to me, otherwise great work.

Good shot GB. But I must say that despite the fact the shot is well exposed the light is too "common" I guess is the word....gives the impression of a grab shot which well...it is. With some PP work you can make it look more interesting...at least for my taste.

Thanks for the comments, fellows. It was indeed a warm up shot, but .. I see something here, like an ad for a winter coat .. all she needs is the coat (with hood) and a real background! (a ski slope?)

Bill, I also like the Private but I think it would be better farther over towards her. I also agree that the dark shadow is bad: I had to do a substantial amt of PP to this to get it good as you see it ... masking to change her, not the bkgd, etc. That's where the line appeared. It'll take a bit of work to remove it.

Rob, I see what you mean. It is a bit flat. It was via my Nikon d200's built in strobe.

.guess I am going to go with Rob on that. The model is simply gorgeous. The concept is good. The lighting is basically perfect, but too perfect. This model has a face and complexion that could do with some dramatic lighting. Dunno who she is, but if you have access, I would love to see something with a lot more dynamic range and contrast.

Daq - here's her MM profile

I agree -- she has so much potential it's sick. I like her stance, thin outline and even her pouty expression (which must be a teenage girl thing .. LOL)

I like this a lot!
