Portrait of a girl 3

Posted by drphoto (Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom) on 23 February 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This image came from another shoot inspired by Sante D'Orazio's work. It was taken in November with a bright, low winter sun bathing the model in golden light. The contrast was difficult to work with and most of the time I was exposing for her face and losing detail in the shadows but I reversed my tack for this shot and I find it really pleasing.

I welcome all constructive comments, compliments and criticisms.
I am here to learn. The fastest way for me to learn is for you to be really unforgiving and articulate in your criticism =D)

If you don't have time to comment don't forget to give a star rating as you pass through!
