Hello

This is the first posting for critique, so please be kind, it was also the first time I had used my elinchrom light. This was taken in a lounge so space was limited.

Thks

Hi dpp,

both are great shots! Congratulations! I like especially the first one for its natural attitude.
Keep on rocking.

By the way what are "elinchrom lights?

The lighting looks pretty good and the rapore is excellent, but -I'm being gentle- the catch lights in the eyes look better if they are in the 10 or 2 o'clock position and there is an old rule of composition that says don't cut off limbs just below the joint. Two easy fixes. Otherwise, they are beautiful shots full of emotion. That's just my opinion, trying to help.
