Posting some up before becoming a cliche here..

85mm, f/1.4, 1/100, flash off

50mm, f/11, 1/160, flash

I especially like the angle and b&w treatment in the first - really nice

The second captures a thoughtful moment, and again works well in b&w.

To me, the third is the least strong of these three - while still a nice picture, it doesn't seem as compelling as the other two.

#3 is good and #2 has a nice glow to it. Good work.

You guys did really well yesterday! Yi-p I like #2 the best out of these images. Great work!

Good work Yi-P, The light in the 2nd shot is really interesting - looks very natural. Like the 3rd shot next. The angle of the 1st doesn't seem right - I tried a couple on a similar angle and they don't look right to me either IMHO. Cheers, Mick

Yi-P,

I like number 2 here beacuse of the vacant stare and soft lighting. What a great lens!!

No 2 and 3 are good. Great facial expression in No.2, although I feel it could do with a bit more contrast.

Thanks all

Now processing other pics, should be up soon enough

No. 2, now that is a nice photo, she would be really happy to have that one for sure.

Cheers

All three are excellent and really beautiful B&W

Thanks Craig & Chris,

I will look further on which other ones can work good on B&W

Yi-P, as well as these great posts I went to your gallery and have to point at number 70 in your gallery of Jacinta - fantastic!

I'd also go for #73

I must agree with Justin on #73, for me it's probably one of the best of the meet.

73 is really great.

At first glance, it's all wrong, with the hand and bow partially obscuring the face.

Then you see the Jacinta's eye, between the shaft and the hair. Magic!

The chair should have been behind the model. It blocks the veiwers eye and the eye has to skirt around it. Otherwise not bad. Gary picked number 70 and I have to agree. A beautiful shot!

The 2nd one is nice! The colour and black and white versions

I must agree with this 'eye-skirting' issue from the chair. But then I think Gary or Dee put the chair this way so that she can have something to lean on and not to be sitting down on a dead-locked position facing the camera. I think, for the non-professional models, this way helps them to relax a bit in posing. Being the fact that she is surrounded by about 8 ambitious photographers and getting powerful flashes every 1.5 or 2 seconds. It must be hard and stressful to be on the other side of the lens I assume.
