I am just an observer and make no other claims. From my perspective the shots are all well focused, lit and composed. However, I would have liked them even more had she either smiled or took on a different facial expression.

Also, in the first image, I find the shadow of her right hand distracting.

What was the assignment?
If it was that you should use tracks as lines in the composition, I would say you did a good job.
Like the first one the most.
Watch out where you cut off legs and arms...
Another thing is the expression, I agree with Kezug that your model need to work on that.

Lovely, love them and agree with k, expressions are missing....but good job overall

The assignment was about flash photography outdoors. Using fill flash to add to existent ambient light. 'Synchro-Sun' at 3:1 and 5:1 ratios. No excuses on the missing limbs.
Thank you for your comments

Thanks. Maybe we can work on a new set only on facial expressions.

i like her expression in #3. I find it tells the story of , "ugh why did I volunteer to do this shoot for this person, I could be at home twitter or watching my soaps, I got to learn to say No. "

okay maybe not but it struck me funny in that way

good work

nice series I too like the first best especially compositionally the rest are nice as well. Already mentioned missing limbs so will leave that be.
