Very nice, Chris. Are you taking up a new career as a portrait photographer?
(What is the mark above her lip? Is it a stud or something?)

 

[Julian de'Courcy]

Superb Chris .

Thanks Brian - thought I'd give it a bit of a punt again, as I used to do a lot of studio work when I lived in the UK

Yes, she has a stud just above the lip

Superb Chris .

Thanks Julian

Super Dof Chris, what a camera, lens, and model! And of course it'd be nothing without the man behind the cam
Great work.

Nice shot Chris. The 56/1.2 len is pretty poison and the model looks very lovely

 

[Pete Askew]

Nice tones (and toning) Chris. Maybe a bit too shallow a DoF for me but it is certainly effective. My eye does get drawn to the highlight in her hair though.

I'm pioneering the one eye in focus look Pete!

The hot sunlight on the hair bothered me too - but less in B&W - Tried a crop but lost too much of the framing of the face

Yeh, whats that saying - Behind every photo of a beautiful woman there is a great man with a camera. I'm sure that's it...
