interesting shot, #2. Is that one lit only by the lamp there? Looks beautiful

Hi,
The lamp is the mainlightsource indeed.
With the standing shot a very slight modeling lamp of a striplight was added for a very slight fill in of the shadows.
But this is barely visable.
However as always it's always in the fine details

Hi,

I like the #4. Light is only a softed Spot from above, isn't it?

Hi Frank,

What's up, 5DMKII ;-) ?

Just some of my first impressions, after all critique is easy especially during a workshop session ...

Not flattering for the model, double chin.

I'm a sucker for subtlety! Where does the power come from (rethorical question, although some might want to know)?

Ah, Leaf, now we're talking ... ;-) However, the elbow is cropped to close for my taste. The shoe gets away with the close crop because it's dark and thus draws less attention.

Very powerful crop. Although it's tight at the top, because the light/dark areas are appox. in a golden section proportion, the image survives.

Thanks for sharing your images on OPF.

Higher ISO is not the perfect play area for the Leaf

the spot in the portraits is the deep octa.

Irma deux, vraiement douce!

For those who are interested (still? yet? ever?) in whether "fine art photography" means:

•photography that qualifies in its own right as "fine art', or
•photography of art, which photography itself qualifies in its own right as 'fine art'
•photography of fine art, which photography itself qualifies in its own right as 'fine art'
•photography of fine art, which photography itself does not necessarily qualify in its own right as 'fine art'
•something more nuanced not lending itself to a succinct definition (yea, perhaps not to definition at all)

But in any case, I believe that we can certainly admit the above photo to the genre of "fine figure photography".

Congratulations.

Best regards,

Doug
