Why not upload these to a place like flickr and then embed rather than attach the files. Its allows you to post them larger with the loss of sharpness due to web compression. Flickr is free and only takes seconds to setup. They are small here and I think suffering from being resized. I agree about the white balance.

agree with the white balance comments, but I think those are good poses for her. Nice locations, #3 looks like it might be OOF but it could be the processing look


---------------Camera, Lens, Flash stuff.. but still wanting more

Borderline overexposed as well as way way off with color balance. I suspect that correcting the color balance issue will pretty much take care of the exposure.

That said, #2 especially is a fabulous photo. Nice work.

Yeah show us the flickr uploads (or just update the 1st post). A couple look OOF the way they are uploaded now. I also echo the WB comments. She looks abnormally orange. In #3, she sorta "glows" unnnaturally against the grass. That can all be rectified in PP though.

Pose in #3 is my fav.

I wonder if you shot in RAW and if you did, did you use a white balance card like the WhiBal?

#1 - Not bad, a tad warm. Subject is a bit small in the frame and looks out of focus.

#2 - Very warm, overexposed and might be a bit out of focus. The lines in the building are quite distracting as well.

#3 - Looks out of focus, washed out. Subject I'd like to see bigger in the frame. That would probably also get rid of the harsh reflection off of the sidewalk in the background which is distracting.

changed the ordering a bit sorry, flickr is definately better. The "glow" Is the sun as the subject is backlit.

They look better. I think I would tone down the saturation in the last one. She is glowing a little pink, either that or try adjusting the color balance to take out a tiny bit of red.

Ill take back my OOF comment, it was just the compression. Thanks for the fresh uploads!

Id take a look at the lips in #2 - they dont look - natural.
