[Frederico]

im just starting,
trying some BWs, not exactly a studio, it was at home with limited lighting, what you think? critics please.

Very well done. What equipment/materials did you use?

 

[Frederico]

thanks, it is panasonic fz10, that i bought 3 days ago.

Before that i used a old praktica L with lunasix3 (praktrica L doesnt have lightmeter) so im just getting started in digital world.

shutter and apert. are 1/10sec (hand held with OIS) and f2.8, iso 100.
i know it sounds dumb not to use tripod in this conditions but i really didnt have space in the room.

hey, Frederico,

#1 - nice pose, but theres too much of 'white space' at the top for me, i prefer the second one -


ps. hey, what does joana need the spoon for? :shock:

nice portraits -

I agree on that first one... I would like to see more of her body than above her head. Nice contrast however.

What's the significance of the spot between her eyes?

thanks guys, i was just playing around with composition, didnt want it to fill all the photo, about the spoon, i added myself for no reason more than that i thought it needed some metal there. and i didnt do the make up, i just said its ok, so i guess theres no actual meaning for the spot.
