Cropped to straighten and that is it. No exposure, color, highlight, shadow, noise corrections at all...

7d - 70-200 F4 L - ISO 200 - f4 - 1/125 sec - 169mm (430 exII camera left mounted w/ mini lumiquest soft-box)

Looking for C&C from others about the image please, thanks

Here right leg is positioned really weird. I don't know why, but it looks funny. The rock in the background is going right through her body. I'd clone out that rock entirely. Other than that, it looks good to me.

I'll attempt to clone that rock out now in GIMP

Sharpness aside, which is difficult to tell at the size anyways, I think it's an excellent SOOC shot. The main "problem" I'm seeing is that her shirt might be blown out, or very close to it, on her right breast and shoulder.I would also clone out as many of the stray strands of hair on either side of her head.

She is ready to bolt. Color, exp, etc is good. More of a masculine pose.


Canon "Snappy".... Thanks Mom and Dad!

As someone mentioned it's a masculine pose and also her shirt is overexposed.

Hmmm, hadn't thought of it that way...I guess you could be right. Posing subjects is definitely one of my weaknesses.
