Your thoughts on these?

Thought about putting these in g&n, but I dont have access, and there is no real nudity, just implied, so here they are. Just working on some lighting stuff one night with my fiance...your thoughts on both the posing and the PP would be greately appreciated

one more

woa...that last one did not convert to the web well at all...guess i should have converted to srgb before saving to make sure things looked ok

colors lost alot of saturating and it looks really blotchy and just plain nasty

FWIW:
#1 seems a bit dark for my taste..I'd run it thru some levels and so on to see how I could make it pop.
#2 is FANTASTIC, I love this one.
#3 yeah it didn't convert too good but you can still get a good idea of what you were going for. The crop is probably something that bugs me, its either not too close or too far away...since you can't zoom out now, I'd crop it just a smidgen tighter myself.
You've got some shiny spots you could clone out to make a bit more smoother for a glamour look otherwise nicely done.

I love #2! It looks great! I don't like the other two... Just too dark or something. Like the lighting wasn't set up right. I'd try to do something to make them brighter at least!

I like #2.
#1 looks dark to me.

here i go.. against the grain again... im not fond of 2 at all. i dont like her expression, nor the pose. i think it would have been better with a flirty smile or something. im big on smiles. three is my favorite because shes got a knock out smile, i dont mind the crop at all. i like that you can see her and not just her face. i think it adds a little more. 1 is ok. but 3 is my favorite.. just make them a little bit brighter.

I like #3 best; the others seem awkward to me.

I'm with shannyd on this... She looks tremendously unhappy or stern or... in the first two. Maybe it's just nerves, but the expression on her face really makes or breaks the pic.

I'd definately go for the second one. I like it. The first and third don't really pop out at me, and the crop is a bit off on the third pic.
