You really don't know what flat lighting is do you? The first shot is far from flat. It needs the light to be a little higher and some more fill but flat it is not!

Very nice, love the comp and PP

Great shot! Nice job on the selective focus but there's no bokeh.

OH...to be a unicorn!

Nice start. Soften the straight edge along his back. Move them up just a tad in the frame. Use a consistant opacity for the font and change fonts to something more romantic/personal. Reduce the images opacity to about half of what you have here and then play to see what you like...

Cute shot. Watch your highlights though, they're burned out on her back. I cropped it and got rid of her racoon eyes.

It's a digital mat and some texture underneath it from Design House.

Made it kinda' grungy and over sharpened it, opened up the right side of their faces. (our left)

IMO that slight crop would improve this already beautiful shot. You're right the light is amazing. Good job on the eyes as well. Nice work.

That sucks!! Hope you feel better soon!!

Great shot, I agree that the light post adds balance.

I like the first. IMO the whites of your eyes are a little overdone. The second maybe better with a little reduction in opacity of the texture layer.

Place the light at approx. 45 degrees to her and bring in a reflector. Look at how the light looks for both light and reflector and practice, practice, practice! Meter your lights or if you don't have a meter then chimp and check your histogram.

I agree. It may be a bothersome in a print if enlarged. I will edit that portion. Thanks.

Thanks everyone, your comments are very much appreciated. It's all about the eyes NJ. Thanks pal!! There is a backdrop. My wife and daughter in law are holding up a banket to block the kitchen stove. LOL

I feel in the first two shots they are competing with the blossoms. But the last two rock!! Nice work.

I haven't been around on the forum much lately but couldn't resist dropping in to show off my first Grandchild. She's almost three months old. Taken at a patio door with a reflector to camera right.

I like the PP on the second one of the first set.

Try the lighting at 45 degrees, at a height to get light into both eyes. Not easy in a self portrait. Because you were partially out of the shot I cropped you down the middle for a little more dramatic look. I added some contrast, got rid of some wispy hair and softened it a little. Very...

A quick edit. Hope you like it.
