I like the way the first shot is framed. The backgrounds in shots two and three are a little distracting. The fourth shot is the best in my opinion. The pose is good, her expression is good (lovely model) and the background is out of focus just enough. It is difficult to capture detail in a black shirt. A reflector to throw just a little light on her shirt from the side may have improved the image a little—or maybe not.

Thanks! I almost brought my reflector and stand but it was too windy. Without an assistant it would have become a large sail. :lol:

The first shot is my favorite. The background is awesome.

Very nice series. I think they all could use a boost in contrast to some degree. Could be my personal taste though.

original is on the left, +20 contrast in PS on the right.

Nice pictures to start with and really nice edit in the post above. Look like you had your assistant there with the reflector in the edited version.
