 Taken on our, rather fantastic, trip to Thailand. This lovely lady was one of the dancers on a dinner cruise.

I love this photo, yet it was taken as a snap as much as anything, and only used the in-built flash (most I took did not work for that reason).

Very nice portrait and the woman is exceptionally pretty and her costume wonderful. Like the colors the lighting...just not the black background....I have not kept with National Geoprahic for some time but I never recall seeing a black BG. Just a thought, other wise great.

Yep, I can see a NG cover looking just like this. I think that a little editing work on the eyes would make it perfect ( they seem just a little bit dull ).

I think this would be more appropriate for the magazine called "Pageantry" :-).

The flash is a little too harsh.

Beautiful model and the photo is very well done. Great clarity, color, and contrast. I can see this as a magazine cover.

Very beautiful smile here... I reckon the flash is a bit too strong, so it looks unnatural. Anyway a lovely shot.
