I enjoy the theme and premise of them all; 2 and 3 being most provocative.

Seems you lost some quality of the photos through whatever site you're hosting the photos from.

I agree with Phil, though #1 puts the subject in proper context of the setting. The images, do look soft, and in particular #3 looks out of focus in the subject. Good work nonetheless.

In this case soft is good. Vermeer might desaturate a little I think. Maybe apply some HDR tone mapping to bring out shadow detail.

I love the work & idea BTW. Keep it going! I want to see more!

I like #1 & #3 best. #2 is too crude a pose for the elegant setting in my mind (but I am an old man).

Thank you for your feedback. The next set will be in similar climates. But it's a couple of days ...
