Pretty girl: C&C pretty please

[Robin Usagani]

Gosh derrel... You always confuse me. So you agree or disagree??

Watch for horizon line or other line like the grass on #2 cutting trough the head. Good job man. I like the way the catch light look on her eyes.

Indeed; when the horizon line cuts through the head, it creates a feeling of three-dimensionality, and provides depth clues to the human visual system. Gotta be careful doing that...when the subject's head overlaps the horizon line, it makes the person seem almost three-dimensional, almost like she's gonna' pop off the screen and come to life and say something horrible, like, "Daddy! Will you buy me the new Barbie Corvette battery car? It only costs three hundred and ninety-nine dollars-ez at Toys- R-Us!" Don't want people to look too life-like in pictures...

I love them,
For the Three being "distracting" Instaid of butching it up by putting your logo OVER the Three (Really Derrel? What if he finish the picture without the logo? lol), i would simply remove it, If you use cs5, content aware fill will remove that tree pretty nicely or simply use the clone tool and the healing brush.
I would deffinetly frame the first one and hang it on a wall somewhere.

Yeah I was considering that, because as you kind of hinted at, if I were to print these I wouldn't have the logo there - that's just for proofing and such. What I'm not sure about is whether I should just clone the tree out, or if I should go ahead and "extend" the grass all the way up to the top of the frame and getting rid of that small strip of buildings. I'm leaning towards extending the grass, but what do you think?

I would try both. Remove the tree and then remove the whole strip and see what you like the most.... Personally the three doesnt bother me really.

I like the pose on #1 the best. Seems the most spontaneous and different of the four. The last one is nice as well, seems the most professional. Adorable little girl.
