Well, I just have to say.. Welcome back Mr. Parrot. I've missed your work and your presence. You still inspire me :)

How adorable is this. I agree with mandy.. there's a bit of a red cast here, but it may have been intentional? I've missed Gracie! :)

hahah.. Still, whatever he was spraying with needed to be down lower.. Seriously, if he has a penis that can go up that far, and still bend and spray .. it's time to call the guinness book of records, and I see a future career in film for him :) If you know what I mean.

Umm.. on second thought, you might not want to read this one to him.

Briiliant. I'm not voting on this challenge, but here's my comment. This is the funniest damn thing I've seen since .. well.. probably since the tin-foil thong.

The colors are much richer in this one.. the pose is very dynamic, and I can even forgive the lens flare :) Fantastic. You really directed your model well too.

I like your outtake a lot better, personally, although this is a rather stunning shot. The one thing that keeps getting me is what she is standing on. The big black chunk really just doesn't do this shot justice, but I understand one has to work with what one has.

Assignment 3 - redo

Yah, you're right, it does start to bring attention to the hair. I think the problem in this case is just an unfortunate combination of things (for the photo on the right anyway). The small size doesn't allow a good sharpen for the way the hair is... at least that's what I'm seeing. Anyway, good stuff. I absolutely *adore* the one on the left, and would love to see it larger.

You've mimicked the overall feel really well, I do have to say. Two things that really stand out to me as differences are the sharpness on your model (yours are softer at the focal points than Jinky Arts), and the lighting (These seem a little flat to me.) With a little more work in the sharpness and contrast areas (with a boost in overall lighting), I think you'd really hit the mark. As it is, they're great shots, but as I said, those are two critical points that I see and feel fall a little short.

I love your eye and your feel for child portraiture though. We're hoping to move away from child portraitures in the next few assignments (We never really wanted to focus on it, but most people here have kids and seemed to stick with them, so Jinky Art felt like a natural choice).
So get ready to show us your studio work :)
