I need your help. This is driving me EFFING INSANE.

The dress collar white spot in her hair, left side.

I can't tell you yet.

There is someone who comments on my images sometimes who hasn't commented yet, and I'm waiting to see what they say.

The shape of her right eye
or maybe because he pants are on fire off camera ?

or maybe your hiding 2 of her fingers on her left hand

just a flying guess ...

It's just one dust blob...

...I'm really stoked to hear what YOU think is wrong with this shot, e.rose!

OOOOOOOOOH. Sh*t.

I was looking at her other arm, hahaha.

Thanks for pointing that out.

I will kill it.

I like the blue-ish matte look, but I think it could be reduced just a little bit. I think it makes the shadows blend together a little too much to the point where some depth is lost in the hair and the sweater. Otherwise, I think this is beautiful.

As for something that may be bugging you; I noticed a small dark spot on the under side of her wrist. It caught my attention, but doesn't really bother me.

The only thing that distracts me is she still has her clothes on

I immediately replied without looking at other responses ... there a little blemish on her lower lip, her elbow is clipped. Makeup and skin seem beautiful to me.

Is it the missing pin light?

 

[Ron Evers]

Twin catchlights? Not that it bothers me.

e.rose....first, I think she's a lovely model and that's a lovely portrait.

Now, what bugs me upon immediately looking at the photo is how damn busy it is compositionally. You've got circles on the top/sweater. You've got the pattern on the drapes to the left. You've got strong vertical and horizontal lines that are bright (so eye-catching) above the model. And then there's that tiny speck of turquoise that grabs your eye off of her charm bracelet. And it's not that each of them is bad, it's that all of them in combination makes it busy. There's just a lot of shapes happening in this shot that compete for your eye.

I think it would have been much stronger if
--you could eliminate the drapes to the viewer's left, OR
--eliminate the blinds above the model, OR
--put her in a more passive (or monotone) top, OR
--you eliminated the small chunk of turquoise off of the bracelet.

That's my 2 cents.

All these could be fixed in PS eRose. Do you want to spend the time to do it? Do you?

3 fingered hand , weird Bat plane looking thingy lower left ?

Hey, I like this portrait so....yea go get a sandwich

 

[KenC]

It's a good portrait, and that's not my area, so I can't really nitpick on lighting, posing, etc., which all seem basically OK to me. The one thing that struck me is that it feels like it needs to be cropped quite a bit on the left. It's tight elsewhere and the drapes are just a distraction, imo.

 

[curtyoungblood]

There are only two little nitpicks things I see that could potentially drive me crazy. The first would be that part of her bracelet is turned backwards. The second is the blue light on the very top of her head.
