Amazing shots. No words of improvement needed. Very Good.

Take this for what it is, but I get that 'Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland' feel from these pictures.

06 is quite disquieting. I don't know what she's looking at, but combined with her naturally expressive eyes, this somehow works.

Truly excellent, congratulations ! Just two minor points: 03 a bit too grainy for me, it gives a weird texture to the hair. There is a distracting foreground blur on the 06 that could have been avoided.

Pic 6 to centralized. Otherwise some amazing pics! Interesting hairstyle ;-)

Fantastic. I especially love the color ones where the pinks/reds are a strong contrast from the green/browns.

Where is Poznaz? Poland?

Michu · 10-24-2011, 03:03 PM

Thank you very much for your opinions.
Yes, Poznan in Poland.

Stunning shots, especially 1, 4 and 5. The color pics are much better than the two mono shots. One critique would be the position of her eyes in shot 6. She's looking too far off to the side. Not much else to complain about. These really don't need critiquing and you should put them right in the regular post your photos section.

4 & 5 are rocking awesome shots. Great frames both.

**Ash** · 11-01-2011, 11:13 PM

Excellent work.
Critique will be tough for all these images.
Firstly, #1, 4 and 5 are posed perfectly - she is very talented.
#5 is my most favoured exposure - beautiful in every way.
#1 and 4 are significantly overexposed - perhaps intended, but overdone IMO.
#2 is another excellent conceptual photo, though it's missing the X-factor in terms of texture rendition and sharpness.
#6 is beautiful - well processed, having her arranged a little off-centre would have improved the overall look of the image.
#3 and 7 are too grainy for my liking.
Otherwise a brilliant series.

5 is my favorite as well! Great work!

jeztastic · 11-13-2011, 02:47 PM

#5 is technically the best without a doubt. However, I love the mood of #2. Something dark and disturbing with the black dogs, I would have liked to see some with the production and detail of #5, and the mood of #2 or #6.

twitch · 11-13-2011, 04:23 PM

#1, 2, 6, and #7 are killer shots, of those I think #7 is clearly the best. Interesting that #5 is the only one I don't particularly like (boring pose, uninteresting composition), but for others it's their favourite.
