Breathtaking shot. Very well done

this is just plain stunning

beautiful…thakyou to the person who bought this work to my attention

absolutely beautiful! thank you for pleasure to see it!

G’day MLF,
The concept, the model, the pose, the lighting, the exposure, the depth of field, the focus, the contrast – all very well seen and done.
HOWEVER! (Doncha just hate that?! ;-) )
All your processing has done some horrible things to the girl’s skin tones in the shadow areas. As they look somewhat “dirty” now, I know from experience that when this is printed that fault will be much worse.
I strongly suggest going back to the drawing board with your processing, being much more careful on the skin areas.
I may be able to help but it would take far too long to make my suggestions here. If you like you could email me here: dennisgay@optusnet.com.au
God bless you and yours,
Dennis

Beautiful work, love the form!
