    Much more judicious use of sharpening here. Processing wise it's fantastic - the only suggestion would be to consider (this is an artistic decision) normalizing the skin tones in her left shoulder and neck with a masked hue / sat adj layer. Photographically the lighting and composition are outstanding, though if the situation had allowed I'd have preferred to see ISO @ 400 to keep the noise down a bit more, allowing you a bit more 'free' room for sharpening. Great job! -Sean

    Thanks Sean :] I know, it really annoyed me that I had to use such a high ISO, but it was the only way =/

    you could have tried a slower shutter.. i get sharp shots at 1/80 (on a tripod, if the model is completely still), and you've used 1/200. when you have to choose between a higher iso or slower shutter speed to lighten a shot, i'd always try shutter first!

    love this btw, wonderful colours and clarity :)

    As with so many of your photos on flickr, I just wish I could see a larger sized version. I can't help feeling that many photos lose something (including detail of course) with the reduction and flickr's processing.

    Thanks Josie - I'll try that next time :D

    Rob - Yeah, flickr always does weird sharpening =/

    I like this shot. I'd like to have seen an alternate version, perhaps on a lighter background, but this is excellent. I like your framing, always tight, and the fact that the subject isn't straight up-and-down, perfectly centered in the shot keeps it from being "ho-hum".

    I liked the angle. Yeah, it looked so sharp to my eye too. When I look to the both versions, this seemed better, played with airbrush on the left cheek more? I really loved the blurry on the shoulder, that part looked like taken with a film camera.

    I like the composition! I agree with the above critique on normalizing the skin tone, though. But great shot regardless!

    It's a beautiful shot, and hopefully an indication of how well your portfolio is coming along. Hope you're doing well!
