Wow, ben.....that sure IS a "lot" :shock:

So many images that my 56k connection can't load everything.

From what I can tell, my critique is....um....cute girl?

You might consider posting one or two at a time. :idea:

Too many to critique, but I can tell you right off I like the one of the girl by the minivan

I love the first one. I wisht he right hand side was dark like the left side.

the 7th (?) one is nice too!

Good job on the multi exposure or time exposures. they look ebtter than mine lol did you use a flash light or a small flash or something else for those?

yes, there are quite a few here for any in depth critique. also, you may want to post in the critique forum.

i did, however; take a look at your site. in particular, the studio portrait shots. they are in a style which i adore: chiaroscuro - tenebrism. this one, for example:

in looking at that image and the images on your site, you may want to try to use the natural landscape of the body to create some darkness, rather than just having the light stop dead. instead of the subject being parallel or perpendicular the light source, try some angles and use a bit of diffusion on the light. you have some good shots on your site that use light fall off and different positioning in reference to the light source; i find them appealing.

welcome aboard and keep up the chiaroscuro work

thanks. I will not be able to do any proper portrait shots until January, I will post how they come out.

You need to be a lot more selective with your pictures. Most of them fall into the 'so what?' zone - it's a picture of X, so what? Try to work out what you are trying to do/say and work on it. At the moment you are only one step up from posting your contact sheets ;-)
And I get the impression you are a student somewhere in England.....

What camera did you use?

Two of these photos were too blurry, but the rest were good, fascinating.
