Hi :) Very relaxing image given that it's middle of the winter here now. I was intrigued by the thumbnail but then a little bit dissapointed after viewing the bigger version. Then I realised that you must have lost a lot of detail while resizing from full frame to such a small res in each of these three images. The uneven brighntess is somewhat disturbing but I can still very easily imagine this as a print hanging on a wall. I bet it would look awesome. As a solo...

I think it has some great potential in both: your photographic technique and postprocessing. I like the result but somehow it feels incomplete to me. Don't know why actually. It might be the issue with her pose. Expression is fantastic but the overall pose seems a little bit forced. Your image reminds me of famous David Hamilton nude --> here Whether it was your inspiration or not I think your image may gain a lot if you focus more on light shadow play on her body (but not...

Very nice image with excellent detail. Interesting face to portrait. I wonder how bw version would look like. I think it could be interesting. Now the only strong color accent is the outfit and it draws attention from the face. BW could help with that or at least maybe desaturate the color there to achieve more balanced overall color.

Nice shot. I like her expression and attitude. I am not sure about amount of patterns and textures on her outfit. Takes attention from her face. But I understand this concept. However I don't like how the gloves dissapear on black background. Softness on her face also a bit too much for my taste.

Lovely shot. I like the textures as well as colors, I wasn't so sure about the negative space but it does work very well. I agree with previous critic. I'd also be very interested in knowing if that composition was arranged or not?

Very nice shot. Interesting concept with the reds in the corners. Have you tried the BW version with maybe somewhat tighter crop? Or maybe you have another shot from this place? I think BW could work very well here - in that case I'd limit myself to the triangles only (without other elements in the bg) and avoid cropping people out. Excellent place for more planned shooting as well.

Really nice cityscape but I dont think that the girls are adding anything here :) For once they have somewhat unnatural orange color cast, and apart from that your crop hurt them badly - leaving them without their feet :) I do like colors and overall detail on the background.

Hello David! Long time no see :) Excellent shot here however I agree about the crop being the issue here. I dont like the orange line on a left side and the bottom crop seems somewhat strange to me - it seems you tried to include all of her hair? I'd suggest either showing some more from the bottom (although I don't know how the hands look) or croping a bit tighter to help draw attention to her lovely face. I see you are using my dream lens - the 85 f/1.2 is it any good ;) ?

Although I like the concept as well as your technique, there is one thing that keeps me from giving more thumbs - expressions on their faces. The girl on the left seems really bored while the one on the right seems really angry. I don't get the feeling that they are enjoying this situation whatsoever. It might be due to higher point of view, but IMO this shot would be a lot lot better with at least some enthusiasm from the girls. Or if not this at least a feeling that they...

Wow, superb shot Sebastian I really love it. As it is I'd hang that on my wall. Actually I don't think I have any complaints about this one - really well done. Nicely seen and executed. Also your postprocessing really enchances the forms of the tree and chain, the colors build a nice pallette. Definatly 3thumbs from me for that lovely fine art image. Congratulations!

Lovely shot! Maybe a tad to dark but I love how the face glows when compared to the rest of her body in the frame. Have you limited the lamp to face only? But the skin on her face looks a little bit out of texture and unevenly lit, seems like some things were done in postproduction but are not finished yet? Quite evident in few areas like near the mouth, around jaw line. It might be question of resizing as well I dont know. Either way some more work required IMO. But...

Hello and welcome to photosig. Major problem of this image is focus. Shooting at 1/125 sec with a prime 50 mm lens it should be razor sharp. Even if she was twisting her head to create some movement in the hair the focus is too soft for such a capture. The exposure seems ok, I am not a huge fan of your crop though and the fact that the necklace goes out of frame - minor flaw here. I think your photo could be a lot better with some more postproduction work. A little skin...

Very fine shot. You've managed to control the whites quite nicely. Only in the upper left part there is no distinction between the model and background (on my lcd). Bottom right - the dark spot is a big no no. Black spots draw immidiate attention in high key images and for sure you dont want the viewer's attention there. Either brighten it up or crop it out. Overall very nice image.

I really don't know why but I instantly seen this as a a vertical composition, rotated 90 degrees clockwise. Maybe it would be less centered that way but honestly I am not sure why it appeared to me like that - I guess it's a matter of personal taste :) Colours and textures are very nice. One thing that bothers me a little is that the corners in the upper part are a little bit more soft than the rest of the image. The focus seems to be fading away. If you were able to shoo...

Nicely seen and executed :) And also this shot has something that I like in some of your other works - unusual perspective or in this case rather point of view. Only nit the darker shadow in lower right. Great work!
