Here are two pics from today's session. Not my favs, but the first to be done for the model. C&C welcome. Super hot out there today!

What did you use for lighting? You have a nice dramatic sky and environment, but the light on the model seems a little flat - more so in the first shot than in the second.

A single OCF.

I like #2 better for sure. I would crop it a lot closer. Just around the cloud above the umbrella.

My biggest complain is basically the wide angle lens. There is too much distortion going on for this type of shot.

What seems distorted to you?

#1. the pole is straight but the vegetations are leaning to the right.

I thought you meant distortion in the figure. This location is on the top of Hamilton Mountain. Not a huge mountain, but you can see the slope behind the model. The shot with the pole is 28mm... too wide?

I think schwetty's been smokin' his breakfast again. I don't see any distortion. I like #1 better, but I agree with schwetty that a closer crop on #2 would be a major improvement.

Subs... Then explain the pole being straight and the vegetation leaning to the the right? .

Dude, it's growing on a hill.

Where I'm from, trees and plants grow vertical, doesn't matter the slope.
