Nudes (no pics!)

Since there isn't a ton of fine detail here, try Neat Image. I'm pretty sure they still offer a free download version? It might take a combination of smoothing and sharpening.

Thanks Woodsac, I've got friends over at the moment who know the model so it'd be a bit rude to do it now, I'll post some edits tomorow so you can see what I get.

The close-ups are cool, but I tend to prefer wider angles (i.e. whole body or most of it), especially in female nudes. There are always some interesting curves going on in close-ups, but the female figure is so amazing, I think that whole body shots just show so many different lines at once. I'm also always interested in the mood of nude photos, so I like to see face in them. I think the model's expression can be very significant in the overall emotion of the photo, so It's not just about the body itself. Not to say I don't like these shots, I suppose I'm just not used to them when it comes to nudes.

I would have liked to take a few shots with the face in but didn't for 2 reasons, firstly I'm not very good at capturing emotion so they would probably have looked a bit porn like, secondly I was wanting to get some shots of the curvature of the body without making it sexual. There is a third reason, tht being that in the 2 years I've taken photos of the model I've only got one in which she wasn't pulling a silly face, she just can't help herself!
