Good seeing more of your work again Ced. Prefer the slightly stronger toning of the first one you posted today (ba.jpg) rather than the edited one (thedone.jpg) - the toning around her face is spot on, but would be prefer it if the toning was more even elsewhere, but that's just me.
How's business been ? You've been diving lately ? Trying to plan a trip soon, but need to work out logistics.
Wow nice shoots man ! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
this shot has some energy !
Like the light coming from below and around the model but not from the front. :thumbsup:
Thank you and what do you really like about the shots though?
The lighting for the latest set seems quite different from your most of previous stuff. I also like the colour tone of the ba.jpg. The retouched ones works too... I like the surreal feel.

The power of expression + very good lighting control also the PP skill.
i have to say i agreed with most DP's comments..:bsmilie: nice one... I haven't seen that one... benefit of doubt... everybody's photo deserved to be commented...
i have to say i agreed with most DP's comments..
I agreed with DP's comment too...He's got most of it correct... but constructive comments would be enough though...just saying the firing of the stylist wasn't needed at all... He nailed it, perhaps it wasn't my forte... Personally, I'll tend to take comments better if he's a good shooter... but what's unique is that I don't think he's much a photographer no matter how I look at it... It's like a food critique may not be a good chef himself...but plays the role of the critique so very well... which is the same reason why he would stick the nail so deeply in his comments... and here I am trying to explain whatever that he just may not understand... again, it's like you can't really put an engineer as a doctor and try explaining what really works...
So much the better... Something he said wasn't needed at all, but there's no control... Good or bad... Doesn't better... Just apply the subjective listening skills... Keep the good comments, throw the rest out like junk...
What's important is that it's out for critics and then I'll learn from there...
Cheers,

Actually, sometimes i felt DP is just like a computer generized programe who just follow all the rules such as messy hairs and cropped limbs plus some sarcastic rhetorics. But when you want him to give you some solutions on how to improve them, i don't he is able to do that. So i usually just take his words as rulers to measure my technical details, but in terms of those innovative portion he resists, just ignore them.
Btw, really admire that you have such a professional MUA, really cool make-ups and styles:thumbsup:
It's good to see you keeping this thread alive with newer works.
In fact I went back to looks at all the photos again from Page 1. :thumbsup:
