    A test "Shot" in the middle of a test "Shoot"

    Greetings

    I haven't been here for some time but I hope that everybody is doing great.

    I was doing a test shoot on a project and I did some candid shots at middle as well.

    This is one of them. I kind of like it but however something is missing in it...or at least that' how I feel. I don't recall any digital enhancement or cropping on this photo however it's possible.

    Please feel free to share your feelings about this one. Thank you.

    Cheers

    Misha

    Hi Misha

    This is a great shot ! The space where the girl is looking is just right and i don't think any cropping is needed .
    IMO there is nothing missing in this shot !

    I too like it, I think like James that her look/direction is just right, and I like her expression. Purely quality-wise, this is beautiful as well, wonderful colors and clarity. It seems a little sad in some way I can't quite put my finger on...
    Take care,
    Eva

    the only thing that doesn't quite keep me totally focused on this the angle or positiing of her shoulders and back...it makes the body look out of proportion with the head...just my two cents...other than that--- I think you have an amazing ability and talent for capturing less than conventional standards of makeup and beauty and making look like it should be the standard... nicely saturated colors as usual and textures as well...

    I like it as well and don't feel anything wrong with it to the point that is a distraction. i see what Natalie is seeing but does not bother me as much. I like the colors, her expression and angle of her head, but i really like the crop on top of her head. I feel it is very good and effective. Was this a Gothic style shoot as she looks to be ready perhaps for the role of a vampire ess
