Ange - Swimwear

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. 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. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Very nice work, the first one stands out.

A :) would have been nice on the third image.

Nice work!

The second one has a couple of hot spots (e.g. on her legs) and the patch of rock showing through between her right arm and her body at first glance looked like it might be a gold-ish accessory. Slight tweaks would improve it.

John, These are indeed high quality as usual.

Who holds your softbox for you? esp in the third?

First is the strongest.

In the third, her expression seems to be in transition.

#4 I would be getting her to move the left leg slightly to her left (or you moving to your left) so that the left ankle covers her bottom (Can see the white bikini etc). But then I am nitpicking.

Thanks surenj...

All shots were natural light (I'm pretty sure), apart from the 3rd... and for this shot, I held my flash myself in my left hand, attached by the SC-29 to my camera. It had a Lightsphere on it, but no softbox :-)

You're not the first one to raise the last point, The white is her shirt which was over her bikini... In addition to that I thought I could get away with it due to the shallow DOF...
Cheers, John
