I'm digging the PP. I think you were in a perfect storm for goodness with the model+dress choice+location. I just wish the light source was more in line with her face, I'm not a fan of the dark shadows on her nose/face. That or reflector on the left for fill light. I like these though :)

Nice images. I'd clone the sun flare under her left breast in the first one, really seems out of place/distracting.

I really like #2. The sun flare in #1 is very distracting.

Good call on the sun flare. I was dreading it since it's right on the patterned dress but it was easier then I though it would be

Placing your light on the other side would make the light appear much more natural. This way the shadows are on the same side of her face as the sun. Great job just a little something for the future. I really need to an alien bee.

Very nice shots. In No. 1 the hot spot on her leg is distracting, and the hair fly-away in the other shot bugs me as well.

But overall great job. I don't mind the sun flare at all. I like it!

I like them mate. Agree on the flair in #1 has to go and putting the light on the other side would have matched the ambient beter... but I like the look you have got :)
