Was trying to create fire effect in the hair, while showing a sultry sexy look

Lovely portrait, like the halo effect of rear lighting. Lovely soft tones.

excellent control of light to my eye.

You have a lovely back light (almost rim light effect) and the dark auburn red colour looks hot but natural.

The dark eyes, strong lips with just a hint of tongue showing all add to the sultry impact as does the slightly sideways look.

Works well against the black background

I think I may steal effect this for my next studio shoot (so long as the model isn't one of our "old lads" from the club - horrid thought Wink

Sorry quick edit now I've got over the immediate impact of the image, I feel that you've cropped it a little tight in the horizontal plane, particulalrly on the right side

the exposure, skin tones and particularly the back lit hair are effective, the model is attractive and looks pretty comfortable working with you.

i think the pose is a little unnatural in a sort of glamour way and i think the view point was a little low providing a view up the nostrils which i try to avoid, however many of the current advertising posters are doing the same. this is just a personal view on composition.
best regards,
Phil

Brian, could explain a little more about the crop, is that the elbow is to close to the edge of the frame>

Phil I agree with you about the nose thing, at the time of taking I didn't spot it, but hey if its the current vogue I'll take that.

Exactly, I was asking what

meant (in French Wink )

You seemed to be saying I thought the crop was to tight on the RH side because the elbow was to close to the edge, at which point I became confused
