Took these on friday. I was hoping for clear sky but when we got there, the weather changed really fast and it was getting windy.
Wind knocked my elinchrom A head but Im glad it still works.
I was using 90x110cm softbox but wind was so strong that it changed SB size down to half of its normal size at some point. So models exposures were not that constant. But anyways we had fun.
I would like to get some C&C and Im interested to know which one looks the best. For me its really hard to pick a favorite

I like #2. #1 seems so awkward to me.

something is akward with 2...

i dunno. the way she is standing. one of the legs looks like it doesn't belong. my fieble attempt to explain what my eyes are seeing... here goes.

the leg on the right of the frame... her left leg, because of the lighting, appears to be on the right side of her body. if you were to squint both eyes and look at the image to where all detail is lost, you would think that her actual left leg, is her right because of the light and the what is probably very uncomfortable position she is standing in.

Had only white and blue fabrics. The blue did not match her dress so we used white one. Wanted to use white and blue as Finnish flag has same colours

Agree with you. On #2 her lower body looks like ducks arse. The leg on left is her right leg. Pose was not uncomfortable. Her lower back is leaning forward and then she threw the fabric backwards. She just did the movement and I took the shot so no static posing here

Lighting is great, I was looking at the 2nd for a couple of minutes and like mentioned above there is something really wierd with the way her legs are posed. It looks very awkward to me.

#2 for me! Even though 1 and 3 are very similar, there is something more dynamic in #1 that makes it more attractive to me.

Well done for putting up with the wind too!!! Makes the wrap really fly in the second...
