The woods

Along Alta Lake in Whistler, BC. Looking for friendly critiques.

Lovely work in B&W on the first image, I like the tones and contrast.
I think it's a shame the large leaf has significantly covered the model though.
No2 doesn't hold my attention as much.

Even without color, the white dress takes most of the attention because it's the brightest part of the scene. Her face blends in with the grass/foliage and is lost. Her face is too far turned to her right and her nose is obstructing her right eye. In the second image, I'm fine with her turned away from the camera, as long as there is some message being conveyed but I'm not getting much of a message. She doesn't even appear to be walking. I have some interest in her hand being held in front of her, but it's not enough.

I like both images. I even like that big leaf in front of her, it gives the image somewhat of a voyeuristic sense. The second image has almost a Blair Witch quality to it. Great work.

My thoughts expressed better than I could do it myself. I love the concept, and the idea, do you have any others from this set you can post?

Honestly I like #2 the most.
