Dan,

I love the way No. 1 is lit and how the colour of light compliments her outfit. Love the natural feel of No. 3 and the tones.

I can see that your style evolves and you diversify in your experimentation. Well done!

No worries, i didn't hassle you as i knew you where busy, and how am i to learn if i don't throw myself in the deep end.....thanks for the chat and i will definitely pay for your expertise early next year

Dan, you have stepped up to the next league, bloody brilliant, love em!

I love the last one - a lot of your stuff isn't 'my kind of thing', but these I really like
Well done

yeah mate it is......thanks for the comments

Dan, I think this is your strongest set yet and it is further helped by the less intrusive watermark, now the subject dominates our attention and our eye is not drawn to the watermark - well done!

Hey mate......yes i had a good chat Belinda amongst others an i want to seperate some of the classier stuff i do from the not so classier stuff.....so i will be seperating ME from Cre8tive Pixels....using Pixels as an agency and and organizing stronger higher quality/fashion shoots including weddings under my name Danial Gowans, i have an identity crisis.......lol

Dan

Firstly great pics, I really like the feel of the first with all the colour, vivid light and the "sparkle beams" that cross her eye and cheek.....

And the last is nice too. The others aren't as satisfying for my subjective consideration.

Great idea.... you will just have to be careful where the line is..... as I would have put say #2 more with your older works.... That will be the challenge.

You most certainly have stepped a gear here Dan and I know this is what might be called a classy series of images but your work here is excellent. The third image is elegantly done with a great sensitivity created through excellent composition and tonal treatment. If I would change anything it would be the slight metalic look of her left hand which i find a little distracting. Small criticism though

Great work Dan, I too think this is some of your best work thus far!
Keep it up.

Excellent modelling stuff as the norm Dan. I also like to commend you on the use of a much less invasive watermark. Your previous one was horrendously overbearing.

The first pic (at least for me) has about four lines on it that look like scratches which seem distracting - one is at an angle and cuts across Belinda's left eye. Was that deliberate?

Otherwise, I have nothing more to add as I'd just be echoing everyone else here!

Despite all the BS in the past, your photos jut keep getting better and better.

I applaud thee

Love the eye contact in the 5th
