My Wife, My Love
Lens: DA 70 Camera: K-30 ISO: 100 

My wife is very shy in front of the camera, I finally convinced her to let me take her picture today and this was the result. Evening light, sun was still up, but covered up by a light haze. so the light was nice and even.
Slight cleanup in aperture, but nothing major.

Very nice, like the pose.
Very photogenic, she should let you take her photo more often.

Hi

Nice sultry look and good pose but I think colour rendering is off. Take your cue from her nice blue eyes and the white of the eyes and once you correct this the skin colour will fall into place as well. No one knows your wife better than you do but I bet her skin does not look like this.

Perhaps like this ?

Greetings

P.S.
I am not sure if the hair colour has come out right but you will let me know, won't you.

It's funny that you posted the edited one. The original is more true to color( we were outside in the sun all day by this point), but she likes your version better.

Ah.... Some just can't be pleased :-)

Thank you both for the comments.

She doesn't have any thing to be shy about there. A Schraubstock mentioned the colour is a little off, did you set the white balance or leave it on auto?

Left it in auto. Her skin tone is pretty red right now. So the color isn't too far off. She's been enjoying the pool deck quite a bit this summer :-)
