Whaaat? :lmao:

What does that *mean*?

Worst tats i have ever seen

OOOOOH, I gotchya. :lmao:

For the record... I did not call her a "shemale", I simply stated that she doesn't have the most feminine looking hands (and not all women do. I don't. My hands look like a kindergartner's hands...so do my feet for that matter. )... and that the lighting is not flattering to her.

No one is perfect. We all have good and bad features. By saying "I see what GG was saying, I didn't mean "YEAH! She DOES look like a shemale!" I meant "GG is implying that this isn't very flattering and I can see why she'd think that"... because the wrong things are being emphasized in the photo... in my humble opinion.

:greenpbl:

YOU WILL BE PUNISHED.

YOU CHOOSE

Dude wtf? What is so artsy about closing the blinds halfway? I agree IT looks like it has a 5 o'clock shadow bro.

@ erose, you know what that is actually a good decision considering the "nun" has both the cross and the ruler. I'll also take the rubber bands to the face for $500.

Doesn't offend me in the slightest. Honestly, and don't mean to turn this around, but let's face it, I understand when I post here, it's open for major ripping from other amateurs. I reserve the same right to rip/critique others' photos as well. And my opinion is certainly not coming from someone who knows what the hell he's talking about - and that's the way I take criticism from others here. Again, no offense, but isn't that the way most of you feel too?

SHE isn't a girlfriend, cousin, sister, (brother - for those of you convinced about the gender) or anything else other than an 'entertainer' that I've known for a few years who saw my pics and wanted some done. She loved the results.

I did get some helpful info though - like my fault for not trying to 'hide' or light her 'not so feminine' features in a better way. So next time that will be my focus on similar subject.

Will I be using these in any 'promotional' items - NO! Did I get a chance to learn and play more with my lighting - YES!

Dude wtf? What is so artsy about closing the blinds halfway? I agree IT looks like it has a 5 o'clock shadow bro.

I agree it's not as artsy as the Christmas trees or water drops (sigh) that you posted on your flickr page, but I had fun with it!

Good call but I don't post a shemale asking for critique on something you call artsy nudes. Get real. I ask for certain critique on a completely different aspect of photography. Hope you're not sore.

 

[doziergraphic]

The point I was trying to make is I'm NOT offended or sore. I asked about the lighting, wall color, and if a shot like this works in black and white. Your critique that it's not art, or it doesn't work for you is fine, and feedback I'm looking for.

But it's always fun to look at the feedback people give here, then look at the photos THEY post to put it all in perspective. Looking at your Flickr page just helped put your comments into perspective. Hope YOU'RE not sore!

I personally have seen some dogs on here that are sisters, cousins, wifes, etc of posters, but I would NEVER consider ripping their looks. But this is a forum board and tacky/immature responses are not only expected, but part of the fun. You just have to be able to give AND receive. I'm good with that!

If your serious about fine art nudes or learning more about them i would walk away from this forum.

try openphotographyforums

great forum

 

[Bram]

Oh no I completely understand, the point I was trying to make is that i;m not asking for critique on "tacky" photos. I'll ask for critique about the Focus, about the Exposure, and the Color of my drops, and then the tree. I thougth the tree looked cool and it was the holidays so i posted it.

Also try photographyonthenet doubt they will take this seriously though.

The key point to be made is that even a very manly woman can be made to seem very feminine with photography. Proper use of lighting, and posing makes HUUUGGGEEE differences. I am a beginner so I can't tell you but maybe someone can lead you in the right direction if you are serious about fine art nudes, which lighting and posing become even more important than everyday clothes-on portrait shooting.

 

[c.cloudwalker]

The face and the hands speak male/shemale to me, which I can do without, the rest of you need to pay attention. Very Freaky.

My first thought

So. Where's the fine art?

and my second :lmao:

Very true. To some extent.

And I'm not saying this is the case here because I don't know the woman but some people (yeah, btw, it is not just women) will never make a good photo. One good reason why I will never do any retail photo again.
