Thought i would use some inspiration from Wendell to try (badly) and experiment with Gels....Tried hard with my posing as well.....i think i am getting better.....anyhow hopefully these are taken for what they are, simply inspired images, NOT ripoffs

nice oe with the gels its good your gettign shadows on the walls it adds that extra dimension to the image

as for pose there are so many subtle guidlines for any situation
but essentially to make it easy when you look through the viewfinder you need to get the girl to move in a way so you get conscise clear poses lots of your poses look like they are shot mid movement or you just missed the pose, usually this hapens technical issue or the model is new and her movements ain't poses more like unfinished movements, when models get better or you direct them to the nth degree you can get conside different poses a cue to take the shot, slouchy movements with no definition doesnt count as a pose

but iof course the other side of this ruel is if you want movement shots and capture something whilst in mid movement but even then its obvious what a good captured mid movement shot is, it needs intensity and flow

back to my make it easy thing, look through viewfinder if the girl looks hot take it if its unflatterign dont take it change pose, get girl to move continuously if yoru not gettign clear and concise poses, soem people work better in continous flowing movements, another trick is to rollplay, or just before a pose get the girl to start of at some pose then on the count of 3 execute desired pose strong at that time if you take the shot its strong and not whimpy

anyway theres pages and pages of this stuff so get out there and make those girls feel like a million dollars and they will shine for you
at the end of the day its about taking a hot flattering shot of a girl hey

Thanks mate.....means a lot tome to get such a detailed reply

first image is very interesting with the triple subject due to shadows...
great work there!
