Fantastic Shot. I even like the reflection you got off the ground. I would love to see this shot but with a stronger reflection as well. I love the shapes the model creates with her legs.

If I could make an image close to that quality ... I would be pretty damn impressed with myself.

I love this shot. The angles formed by the legs amuse me. Not to mention the lovely model and good lighting.

just ran across this & I realize you've moved on from this photo and probably don't want to mess with it again, but... I'd have to say I didn't notice the hair thing or the reflection of her face as being a problem. maybe her face could be lightened to match her body and the horizon straightened out just a tad (and next time, no shoulder blocking face).

that said, I think her bare feet and the jeans sliding off her butt are very sexy, I love your colors and beautiful setup with the lighting, plexi and background... looks like a magazine ad

I love the tones in this image. The blue jeans against her skin really work well. The pose is nice. I have to agree with others in regards to showing all the hair.

This would have been a great idea for the geometry challenge.

Man, this is good. Personally, I like the bare feet so don't change that! If you are going to change anything I would fade out the reflection of her so that it matches the way it fades out with her left foot instead of having the reflection go off the frame. I just like reflections that fade out and I think that would make an already perfect image better if that's possible. Really a super job and I can only hope to get this good.

Damn this is great Neil! The look, the pose, the colors are all wonderful. If I were to nitpick, it's only because her hair was cut off the frame. Aside from that, excellent work!

I like this photo much better than the companion close-up. She's looking at the camera with a more natural smile, and the full-length view puts the unusual upper-body position in a playful context. Also, in this view the varying skin tones don't seem as much of an issue.

Great lighting, great smile, great eye contact. Don't change a thing. The only thing I might do differently is the same pose, same pants with high heels.

WOW! Spectacular shot. Lighting looks flawless. The only thing I would suggest to improve upon is allow the viewer to see all of her hair - secondarily, all of her face in the reflection. Really outstanding work.

Very classy! I really can't think of obvious ways to improve the photo. I do agree though that with such a lovely face, it would have been better if she inched her shoulder down a bit so we'd see her chin. Also cropping half of the empty space above her leg might emphasize the angular composition more. But all in all, a truly professional looking shot.

Wonderful lighting on both your model and the white drop. Great skin tones and color as well.

I like the reflection of the foot, but it is a bit dstracting by her face, especially her eye. I realize you can't have one without the other.

Some minor points...

Her pose is very nice and works great with your angle and composition. I might try to use liquify a little on her little tummy pooch (and I do mean little tummy pooch). She is a beauitful and thin girl, but the pose makes the lines of her hips and belly a little bumpy. I think a clean, straight tummy line would be more flattering.

I would have asked her to take off the bracelet.

Excellent work!

Techinique-wise (lighting and such) this is excellent.

Few things that are personal preference
I wish the reflection included her whole face. The bleeding out/not quite half cropping doesn't quite work for me.

I don't like her shoulder in front of her chin. As beautiful a model as this, it'd be nice to see the entire face, and some neck as well

Wish the hair was in the frame as well

As I said, these are all personal, nit-picky things I've noticed. You may do what you'd like with them :)

Excellent job!

I second that ;-)

I see plexiglass. Please tell us the light setup and background also.


Thanks guys!

Hmmm....2 Bowens Esprit lights out front, one on each side with softboxes, to slaves at the background bounced off brollies. A sheet of perspex (plexiglass) on white roll of paper.

With these kind of models, it is very difficult to think art :P

I will try to do my best... It is an awesome idea, posing wise. The reflection on the floor gives double value to this photo :)
