All excellent, except that #1 has some problems with leaves growing out of her head and the skirt seems to have a problem in the front (needs to be smoothed out in the area near the button).

Cheers,

#3 and 4 are the best. I prefer the color version given her hair color. I think it was #4 that has a piece of hair going to her mouth, I think this should have been PS'd away. All in all, very nice work indeed!

Scott,

Hi. I like two and three the best though they seem a bit washed out on my monitor and two could use more room for the model to look into.

The first one is too busy for me, if she'd be farther from the background and you'd use a medium tele to telephoto to compress and soften the background, then #1 would be much better.

Four is not bad either, though I'd love to see more of her shoulders and more important, more "catch light" in her eye facing the ground so it would have the ambiance the other eye has--eyes to me are the most important part of a photograph.

Five is cliche, been done with strawberries, grapes, cheries, etc., so I want to see it done "differently" and I'm not sure what that would be, but my approach would be go beyond cliche.

Just my thoughts, and thanks for being a member of the G1 family and community--we missed you last weekend in Chicago, next time I'm up, come on down on me! Thanks again and Happy Holidays, rg sends!

what? your budget for this shoot couldn't afford real grapes?

Couple of quickie things that come to mind for me, since you asked:

Photo #1: leaf coming out of the top of her head is distracting, cut-off skirt is out-dated
Photo #2: nice image
Photo #3: the eyes are too dark. lack of catchlights creates very cold lifeless eyes
Photo #4: hair going right into her mouth is a huge distraction to me
Photo #5: the left side of her looks huge due to the wardrobe and how the pose makes it "balloon"
