Love the structure, especailly on the shirt . There is something that deosn't quit add up to me, not sure if it is the pp or not. It looks like her head is taken form another photo/copied from this photo to a new layer...see the line of her neck, to the left in the picture...the shadow is not quit riht there i think. Did you copy her face to a second layer whe doign light adjustments? Teh way she hold her hands are great but the angel of her pose makes her look a bit "flat chested". She is holding her hands right where her breasts are so it looks like she does not have any (hehe, i can say that, cause i am a girl myslef ) I woudl try to have hger pose a lite bit more sideways, the her hands woudl not hide her curves but rather distinguish them some more....maybe , i am not a professional so i can't be sure, just a guess.
Hm...i feel a bit crule her. I hope you don't mind or get upset with me. It is only cause i know you do great work.
Hugs

Hi Jeff, HOpe you are doign fine
Very even light you have here, not a shadow as far as i can see. Only thing that boters me a lite bit are a few hotspots in her face, or reflectiosn ratehr i think. A tiny bit more powder on teh high parst of her face will take care of it . But it is only minor Also, i would have wished that her whoel hand was included.

We have these birds livng under our roof in the summer. They put on a show for use every day and keep all un welcome mosquitos away from the balcony...so i like these birds very much. YOu did great Roberto. Great first experiment. I am curious though, as to what type of experiment you have been doing Great shot.

Well, i do wish the quality was a bit better...but in a strange way, this lack of quality adds some charm to the picture too. Only, it feels a bit like it has been taken out from an old movie. it gives me a feelign thatsomething bad is about to happen, and i am not sure if that is what you wre after. Part from the problem with the scanner, i am trying to picture thsi seen as if the scan was flawless. Then i find it just a lite bit to dark, especially her face as we can not see much of it. Butit is strange, this picture reallt appelas to me. teh dark atmposphre, the lines from the scanner, the girl and how innicent she seem in this dark enviroment. I think it is a superb picture.

It is a very nice graphich composition. Depending on what you were after, this can bee seen as very good, or good. The mountain in the backgrudn does not looklike they belong in the picture. Tehy do not have enough structure and depth. But if this was your goal, not to have them blend in a natrual way, then then your job is complete. If youwant them to blend more they will need more structure. In that case you can try to blend them with a picture of clouds. You would have to uselayer masks and difrent belnd moods in Photoshop or paint shop pro. You woudl probably need more thne one layer, moving around the clouds abit to get depth. I am not sure it would work though and i guess it would take a lot of paitnece to do it.
That was about the mountain. Now, to the picture as a whole...absolutly love it. It has so much drama with those wonderfull clouds and vibrante colours of the flowers. The perspective provided by the hills in the backgroud as wellas the cloud makes me feel like i am being drawn in to the picture. You did a good job.

Oh this is a beauty. All that negative space really addso a great mood in this picture and the mood goes very well with the b&w. The sea looks grandious and the man and the boy look so small, unprotected against the fury of the sea...even though itis calm now, the fog say it isn't always soo. Beautifull photo

This is a beautifull potrait. The ligt is very well controled. Maybe a bit to bright in some areas, the teeth seem a bit to bright and the cheeck is close to a hot spot. But the potrit is lovely. I really like the vibrant colour and the realxed modell - you. The black backgrund works great and brings out the colours in a good way. Contrast is superb. So, a job very well done here.

It was as i was gessing then...you had an idea behind it. I though you must have had it cause the watch was so prominent that it would not be something one would miss. Maybe if you are a beginner, then yes, it cousl be missed but the quality of this photo tells me that you are defenatly not a beginner. Cropping the clock also makes perfect sence, especially considering your title...now that it has been translated to me. Sometimes title and picture makes the perfect match

You are right dear, a gradient filter would balance the light but we will have to make due with the equipment at hand I wish i had a gradient filter but, not yet.
You used film when taking this shot...since i use only digital i think i would have gone the otherway and underexpose the picture I would be able to bring out more details then. Or ...since i love to work with photo shop, i might have taken several picture with difrent exposure and combine them in photo shop...so i would be cheeting
Your picture is beautifull and it must have been a lovely light. A wonderfull way to wake up...
And...i disagree with you...i think you are a very good photographer

Oh...i am a BIG dreamer Once again, it is beautifull Roberto. I only find the sky being a bit overexposed. I think the camera must have been a foled as to what light was avaiable. But i can see this must have been tricky...as the ocean and the mountain in the foreground is still very dark and still the sky becomes pale in some places...
You have a wonderfull composition where both the cloud formation as well as the mountain creates a very nice depth in the picture. I like how both the clouds as well as the mountain takes the viewer to the same place in the picture, individually...there is no conflict as where to look. That makes it very plesant.

Great capture Dave. Compo is really good, don't mind the blades of the chopper being cut of really, in fact i kind of like it. It is really well balanced to i must say and i like the human element as it gives us the scale. I'm thinking mostly of the man in the back as the one in front is a bit out of proportion for scale mesuring. One thing that really makes this shot though is the fact that the guy in the front is about as big as the chopper.
