I recently got my 35L and took it out for a spin and I'm starting to really like this focal length. I also dusted off the 70-200 for a few shots. lemme know what you guys think.

She is a beautiful model but I agree the colors are off. They appear too blue/purple. The white balance also appears a bit off. However, the poses are very good. Nice work overall but try reprocessing them. I think that would really help.

Thanks for all the feedback. As far as how the colors are. I tried to process them for a different look so that it doesn't look like it just came straight out of the camera. Was looking for something a little more unique. I'm not exactly sure what I could do about the colors being different (face/chest) other then some PP. Most people up here in the pacific northwest don't get enough sun to even things out =P

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it.

They are too blue. Reducing blue in curves should help...
Transferred some color to the chest. Desaturated all a bit. Adjusted overall skin color. Bit of dodging. Final adjustment in levels. Better?
