This was shot with the sun shining directly onto her face. I love the wrap effect this gives, and the harsh falloff to shadow. We had a blast shooting through olympic park, came back with nearly 200 pictures over an hour of shooting.
I like this shot as well. You model looks very relaxed basking in the sun and the dark shadow accentuate the glowing sun. The one thing I'm not fond of is the crop at her back. I think a more rectangle crop might be better.
This is excellent - from the sun on her face (and I agree completely with your assessment) to the detail in her shoes (and very cool shoes at that), to the simple overall warmth of this shot, both in color tone, light, and the presence of your model.
Composition: Again with the leading lines. Beautiful. Great square crop too.
Lighting/Exposure: Great spotlighting of sunshine on her face. I like the contrasty feel.
Pose: I'd like to see this with her arms on her shins. The way you have her posed isn't bad, don't get me wrong, it is quite pensive. I would just like to see a variation to see if it works too :P
Suggestions for Improvements: Again, you have me at a loss :)
Her hair blowing in the wind really adds a little extra to this image. Very nicely done.
I like the look of the shadows, the golden colors, the soft bokeh. Composition is nice. I do find my eyes drawn to the poles on the left though. The lighting and wraparound shadows are just great!
again, beautiful portrait, the more i look at it, the more i like it, the bottom being chopped off makes me a little weary, but then again, the more i look at the composition of the image as it is, the more it looks ok.
