Potrait of Christina

Photographers Comments
Shot at the same workshop as Maria

Hi Steve, I'm not a portrait person, but I do like this one, very sharp and you have caught the texture well in the skin. The hair falls nicely between the eyes. Although I do find the top of her black belt or whatever a bit distracting.

Hey Steve
Cracking shot. nice and clear as Barry says. I too found the belt a distraction and i'd prefer a touch deeper in the shadows but thats a minor point in a very good portrait.

Hi steve.

Stunning model, nicely shot, Where do find your models, There hard to come by here in lancashire.

Hi paul,
didn't have to find the models the photographer alan towse who did the a workshop at my camera club lectures at stockport uni,he brought along 2 spanish sisters who are over here learning english as he thought it would be good for them.
Plus he must have bunged them a few quid.It was my second week at the club so it cost me a quid to get in BAAARGAAAIN!!!

Hiya Steve

Your right about the bargain, Nothing like that happens near me, I have to travel miles if I want a photoshop, so depressing.
Thanks for your reply.

Hi Steve, Great shot, love the clarity etc and the movement of hair. Cracking

Great shot mate....as above, its just the belt that spoils a great image.

Agree great shot, pity about the belt, why not clone it out.
