Love the first and third one.

1. 3. 5 are good. Two would be better if the heads did not overlap. on 4 the strand of hair is too distracting, 6 is just boring to me. Otherwise good exposure but nees a boost of contrast.

Not bad, and a far sight better than I would do. I would like to have seen more light on the 5th image (man with the print shirt). I like the last image, almost looks like it could be an album cover.

Bump!

More feedsback?

Oh my, these are beautiful!!
reminds me of the 70's pictures...

I have thoughts on the close-up on the girl's face, which I all in all like because her gaze is so intense.
Now my question to you is: you must have noticed that strand of hair, and you and she together either decided to place it there on purpose, or you - as the photographer - decided not to ask her to brush it away with her hand before you took the photo. Why?

Maybe, if we could see where it come from (we know, of course, but if the crop weren't so close), it would make somewhat more "sense". But now? Her gaze is still very intense, and her face is very pretty, and the "fill-the-frame-style" is appreciated, but that strand of hair...?

I dont like to ask whom i shoot to adjust whats going on naturally. To have her moved the hair wouldla betrayed that. AND its cropped so tightly because its not croppped! was shot with a fixed 105mm lens.

Thank you very much for the feedbacks!

just like the first one. i find the others to be "normal" pictures.

I realize it's probably totally not your style but I just had to play around with it, I loved it so much. Beautiful capture, hope you don't mind:

I hope you don't mind, I tried my hand at an edit as well. This is a great image! I thought it would speak a little louder if the eye was lead with light. I added some dark in the sky and upper left of the image and added some light in varying degrees on the subjects. I also painted in sharpening on the gal and a touch on all the other faces. I used Kubota Actions "Digital fill Flash", "Smokeless Burn", and "Amazing detail finder". Oh and I almost forgot, I also changed it to a warmer B&W with "Hot Fudge" all these Actions are on ArtV2

I really like this image!
