I like them you did a great job.

I like one and two the best, the last one looks like the background was photoshopped so it just kind gives the whole image a weird look...could just be me.

On the first one her face seems to be a bit blown out...not sure if you were going for that effect.

All and all great shots.

What's going on with the halos? Are you extracting?

not bad, but #3 looks like you cut her out in PS and put her on a background. It just doesn't look right.

Not to hijack, but what do you mean? I'm a newbie, so I don't see anything other than the background issue in the third. And I can't speak for everyone else, but maybe some of us can learn something (I know I will).

The second is my favorite. Its very sexy with the laces on the shirt. And how she's looking out the window is intriguing. The lighting is good from what I can tell, and so is the composition.

I'm sorry I'm not more help. You're really way beyond me. But maybe some critique from a more untrained eye will help you.

Nicely done; in addition to those already mentioned comments, I would suggest that overall they appear to be slightly over-exposed, and have rather too-strong highlights.

Thanks for all the comments...this was my first attempt and yes the lighting came out a lil hard...I need to back the softbox back some more...Its a learning experiance...number three I did PS that one...Just wanted a different look.....

what do you mean by hallos extracting?

Theres no cigarette in the first one....

#2 is my favorite. #1 is okay, but like MyaLover pointed out, no cigarette. Even if it were unlit, shoulda had one.

I am liking number 2 as well. For some reason I am bothered by the outdoor greenery, (and the watch..I think I might be getting a tad detail oversensitive) I would love to see it in a really contrasty B&W.
