Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.
Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.
Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

All your ghetto lighting are belong to us!
I got bored, hassled the GF to smile for a photo or 10... have no off camera flash yet...
Here's a quick shot I managed. I'm happy considering the above

The light seems to be mostly even, apart from under her chin. Any comments on this?
Feel free to post up and have a laugh at me, I am

The WB seems to be too orange in this pic.

I hope you don't mind but I had a quick guess at the white balance but it may be out as I wasn't there and there doesn't appear to anything neutral gray in the shot
also gave it a light sharpen
as far as the lighting goes it is very good and I think the shadow under the chin is fine as it give the jaw line good definition

I have to agree that the WB does seem to be on the warm side

It's a bit on the warm side, unless she's been drinking a serious amount of carrot juice.
Overall it's a lovely pic of a beautiful lady. My nitpick would be the hair. It's one of the biggest pains to pay attention to as I've often missed a stray strand or two which sticks out or looks messy. If you can, clone the hair strands that's on her right shoulder (our left). The rest leave it as it shows that it's a casual shoot.
