Anke (fashion-like shot)

[mu-n]

Hi there again ;)

This is my second post...
Ok, I could have included this picture in my other post, but the topic is completely different. So I hope it's ok to start another thread with it...

This time it's a fashion-type shot I did with a model named Anke. She's a beautiful model. Not only from her looks but also from her attitude. It was really fun working with her and I hope we can arrange another session one day.

Anyway, here's she is. Tell me what you think.

Nightly greetings,
John

Its a great shot. I don't know fashion, but I know what I like ;)

Nice work, well lit and everything. My only comment is it comes across as a little static. Not sure what would be the best fix, different framing, a different pose? It just looks a little too bulls eyed.

@Citizensmith:
Well, you're partly right. Actually we went for this "distant" look. But this shot was from almost the beginning of the session. Lateron she was more relaxed ;)

Here you have a better one. Tell me what you think ;)

Greetings,

I like number 2 better.
The boots in number 1 had a tendency to draw my eye from the model.
Very good though

For No.1 maybe not placing the model at center would help. Try a Little crop from the right side.

Hey, thanks for your interest :)

For the boots: she wears the same boots in the 2nd picture... but they're cropped out ;)

The cropping at itself is not yet final. The pics are straight from the camera (except for b/w conversion, resizing and some mild unsharp mask).
