Trust me, you ain't the first guy to beg her for something

Think I flubbed on the edit here. What do you think?

Comments for #2 please? Believe it or not, I do learn from all the comments and try to apply to future work!

One of the portrait guys here could probably give usable advice. I really wouldn't trust what I say. I see nothing wrong here. The only thing I would think about is arm position but I'm thinking you don't have a lot of options and the pose is so good I wouldn't change it.

so the edit looks ok? Her skin has a natural look? To me I find the highlights on her abdomen distracting.

Rick50 · Nov 15, 2014

That doesn't bother me. Highlights and shadows create shape & depth and that's a good thing here.

Highlights look fine mate. In fact I can't see anything wrong with this at all. Nice work!

#2 is really great, but please clone out that tassel between her belly and the sand! It's driving me mental! Nice Dutch tilt.

#3 is also great, but a lot of my attention is being taking away by that cliff top right (believe it or not!). Any wriggle room to crop it out? If not, perhaps a 30 minute clone job?

Trever1t · Nov 15, 2014

hmm, i thought the cliffs added some balance? Any other opinions on that? The string ya, details I always overlook.

There's a cliff in the shot???

You might be right, but the background is so bright that I think the model might provide all the darker tones that the image needs. It might be an either/or, maybe it's not that big a thing.
