A Russian Beauty!

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.

Forum rules
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.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

exposure is all good on these well done

but i like the 2nd one it has a more mysterious mood to it

and the movement is really cool cool too

what do you think about the distortion when using the 17-55 wide?

Number 3 for me, good hair action, good expression and I like the positioning of the model and the lighting. Well done.

Have you photoshopped her legs in the second one... cause they like kinda wierd and not at all real...

I do like the last two though... great poses and much more natural...:)
The last thing I want to do is hurt you... but it's still on the list... ;)

Can i ask , why would i photoshop her legs? It was shot with a 17-35mm lens tilted down away from her face, so i guess its just distortion..... :)

Dan, i think Bindii might be referring to the slightly odd colour tones on her legs.
could this have been due to the colour tweaks you did?
or just my screen.. again lol
nice shots as usual :)

Yeah, ditto all positive comments (I like 3 the best...)

This Russian was a "Home-girl" type model shown on "Ralph TV" last Thurs (10:30pm - ch. 9 - fun boy-stuff just like mag...) last Thurs. Great sort. Face reminds me of my first girlfriend.
