Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

i test with my stylist Angela all the time to refine ideas
with this shoot we wanted a contrast and dynamic between stark architectural lines and curves(body) to produce something more interesting than the a-typical beach shoot, poses are more high fashion type angular and balanced poses
multiple colour hues for each shot just experimenting on mood
i used a beauty dish as fill flash to lessen the harsh shadows from the afternoon sun, without killing the shadow definition
it has minimal effect but does make a difference*
*you can see dish in the reflection, notice the harsh shadows are lightened to show tone

#1 and #2 for me are miles better then the other two, just my personal preference but I dig the colour pallet the lighting, the poses, in the first half. It has a certain retro / vintage flavour to it I really enjoyed.

I love the first two. The tones, use of shadow and light and the lines are fantastic. There is very much an implied sophistication which works - something along the lines of very high level jewellery/watch/diamond advertisment.

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

My take
#1 - too harsh and very awkward looking pose
#2 - better than #1 but I find the ’tree’ in the gap distracting
#3 - great pose but awful shadow
#4 - great pose, shadows are right and curves and lines work the best in this pic - love it
