First ''photo'' with my new camera

[cauzimme]

Yeah, my bestie came over, we watched buffy, ate popcorn and I bribed her with pizza if she could only accept to sit and smile so I could try my new camera. It works, pizza always works.

D610 and 85/1.8....sweet new gear! Your bestie is so pretty, one would think no bribe would be needed. I hope you enjoy the new camera immensely!

Very beautiful model but the hand & leg look disproportionately large.

Congrats on the new camera. Your "bestie" is a cutie.

I agree with Ron...the combination of the DoF and the placement of her right hand makes it (her hand) look disproportionately large. If you could reshoot, just have her drop that right hand and the crop it as a headshot. Frankly, from the necklace on up, it's lovely. Also, try to avoid cutting off the top of her head.

If I have a bestie like that, I'd be photographing her all day long.

Congrats on the new camera.
I like the light and your friend is beautiful, but I think the composition needed more space.
But it's a good snap there.

Cheers

For cropping top of head, I often do it, and kinda like it, I watch a lot of Sue Bryce video lately and she also does crop a lot at the top of the head. I found a chart on the net which says it's okay, what's everybody opinion about that?

Thank you, I wasn't really trying to do something, just wanted to try out the camera.

I was very impressed by how good looking the noise was at 6400 Iso, past 1000 with my d300 it looked like crap. I knew it would be better, but I wasn't expecting that great.

That was the actual shot, with my prime so I didn't really have space behind me and to the side.
I was bugged by the cutted feet, so I crop even more, but I do agree with you.

Also shot that one;
She's the cutest awkward penguin
