what does it for me on this shot is the look she's giving the camera (even with just the one eye showing!) and the cool zebra effect of the blinds. its wild and very well done. 9
Interesting potrait, I particularly like the hand, which works very well in the composition. I'm not really sure about the tonal range and contrast you ended up with though... I would have been tempted to increase the contrast using curves in PS. This looks a bit washed out to me, bearing in mind it's a study in lines of shadow on a human body.
I like this Venetian blind effect - even though it's quite popular. I think more work needs to be done on the focusing side of things though. Her hand has good definition, but her body and face seem little softer.
When this blind effect works, it tends to be with more simplified poses - with a crunched up pose it can look a bit too much messy.
I really like this one. I like the expression she has, how there's only an eye. I don't usually like this lighting effect but I really like it here. It creates a kind of prison but at t he same time a gentle calming pattern.
