    Sunset Portrait

    Used fill flash on the camera to soften the shade on her face
    I liked the warm tones and the movement of the white cloths in the wind



    I think i could have a used a bit more space below her hands
    also the image is a bit tilted to the right

    comments ?

    Thanks for looking

    Very nice Armando. It's a tad darkish on the left side of her face (her right) but it adds character. My only minor complaint is that I want more space below her lower hand, seems tight and almost out of the frame as is. But it is in, so that's no big deal.

    I might crop in just a little to pull the emphasis to her, as there are so many objects competing with her for attention.

    Great lighting, very sharp!

    I;ve been meaning to comment on this one. I love the DOF here. works well. I also like the wind blowing in the background, it adds even more separation. The inclusion of the rope works really well. overall great. no nit picks.

    edit: oh wait! not so soon! I have a nitpick. I wish the drapes on the left side where on the plain as those on the right so that they could've become more out of focus.
