Girl in a Black Dress / Critiques Please

[Kemal]

I took these with my K10D using the kit lens and a manual 55 mm lens from a KX. Tell me what you think, the rest of the set is at www.kemal.ca (http://www.kemal.ca)

The first and last aren't a black dress.......

Much better expressions than last time, a lot more natural. Still an (in my view, over-) emphasis on centred models, while it is good once or twice you should play around with the spacing a bit more. 2 and 4 are a bit flat, contrast wise, and 5 is a bit blown although I assume this is deliberate.

the first one is great, however I would have liked to see her in the black dress for this one. It would contrast with the white wall.

2 is blurry

3 is great, no crits there

4 I woulda cropped out the walls, they are distracting.

5 this one makes up for number one!

6 is great but would it be better if it was wide angle so we know what she is looking at? or did you just want us to see the back of her head.

No pictures are showing, and your site is not working...

You need to work on your composition and framing, also using DOF to your advantage.

I checked and the pics should be showing up ok now.
