My first shoot. Done at 2 locales. This is the 2nd one. Please let me know what is wrong and right about it.

Btw, the picture should have been sharper.

hmm..I think that out of focus element kinda reduces the impact rather than add to it...

u think if it was in focus it would have been better? was it distracting in the composition?

I guess it just doesn't add any impact to the photo because it has no relation whatsoever to the subject?
Even if it were in focus it still will be the same, perhaps less distracting but still wont give any contribution to the message you wanna get across.
We are just left wondering what that thing is...

The first picture cannot make it, the framing and composition is jsut all wrong.  Of course, there is no right and wrong in art, but then, some things work and some don't.  here nothing works.  The railing is overpowering.  The molding on the wall decapitated her head.  Dead on arrival.

The rest, nothing to write home about, but much better.

In general, I found the lighting too flat and boring, resulting in pictures lacking in depth and 3-dimensions.

Things to pay attention to, rule of third is there for a reason, master it then break it.  When in doubt, it usually works.  Chopping off limbs, indlucing hands is usually a no no.

Move around.  For examble the 3rd picture, teh open archway, as it is right now, looks to me over bearing, dominating the picture.  However, if you have moved close to the wall, shooting the model with the archway framing her, the result will be totally different.

Smiley  Go forth and shoot alot more.

btw ... got such beautiful model to shoot and you didn't tell me?
