Ariana for C&C

[LizardKing]

Hello!

Last weekend was my first attempt with a DSLR. This is probably one of the best to me. Could you please tell me what you think?
Lightning wasn't too good, so I tried bouncing the flash into the ceiling... Hope I did it well :mrgreen:

edit: 39mm - 1/25 - f/4.5 - ISO 1600

The chair with coffee cup and shirt don't do much for the photo. I would post more info for the shot, it may help with CC.

You mean like EXIF data? Added! Thanks!

edit: yes, I don't like the chair either. Maybe I'll try to clone it out.

Cute girl! What I find even more distracting than the chair and cup are those gray/silver lines that seem to be coming straight out of the top and sides of her head.

Very nice portrait, I agree with critique above and the skin looks yellowish.

good job... be aware of backgrounds.

Crosshairs...

Thank you all for your feedback guys!

I'll try to play a little with photoshop to clone out the horizontal lines from the gate, and maybe the chair. The yellow tone in the skin is because of the lighting, but I'll also try to improve it.

Have a nice day!
