I like the lighting - subtle and effective. :)

Self headshot which is my first ever attempt at any kind of portrait photography. I know there's room for improvement so C&C is welcome.

QUOTED IMAGE

Nice shot and not bad at all for a first-time self portrait. A couple of things I would change. 1. Hot spot on background seems a bit too hot. Drop it down a stop and bring color back into the background. Also, lights seem a bit harsh (nose, cheek and forhead hotspots), dial down the exposure a tad. Other than that, great shot. And wow! I love those glasses. At first, I thought you had PSed the lens out for some reason but upon close inspection, I see that there are lens in the glasses.

I like your the lighting in your shot with no reflections of your eye glasses; I just wish I could see a hairline of the other lens so that the temple doesn't look like it's floating :)

I appreciate the feedback on this, Hinson as it's greatly appreciated! These are the things I noticed as well so glad I was at least on the same page in identifying the issues in order to correct them in the future. Some of my lighting I have are constant lighting so this along with getting use to using a strobe and OCF will just take experimentation to find that right setting. I look forward to that challenge as it is rather fun using these along with the triggers for the flash lighting.

Thanks for the compliments on the glasses as I just received these. I ordered them through Zenni Optical, on online eyeglass retailer. Not only are they lightweight and stylish, they are also cheap so I was very pleased!

No problem, glad to help. Just dialing down the exposure a tad would make the difference. And I just got new glasses but I think I'll check our Zenni just for kicks. I love those glasses. :) (doesn't take much to excite us old folks...hehehe)

I like your shot, but the only thing which bothers me is her left hand. In current framing it looks, as if it wasn't her hand.

That photo does not seem too 'hot' to me.
