I want to like this shot, but the expression is abiguous, the colors not too controlled, the composition dull, the camera angle and lens length lacks creativity. The backgroud and floor are well controlled – but I’d like to see more of the face and more dynamic lighting.

Very moody shot, just not my thing, the colours are a bit drab, and you cannot really make out the expression of the lady, still the clothers and the massive shoes make the shot interesting
Yeah, now this is an interesting one. I really like what you’ve done here. This is a sharp capture, with interesting lighting and a good artistic eye. Very underexposed, this is going to be hard to look at on a lot of monitors (and prints), but I like how the light you’ve used has emphasised certain (key) parts of your subject. The use of black throughout has emphasised the splashes of colour of her hair and the green strip of her corset. The shine off her stockings is great, and there are some lovely hints at texture too. Where this pic for me really slips up is the flooring! Because it’s so overlit (compared to the background), the scuffed grey is a real distraction, and it takes away from the whole impact, and unfortunately makes the subject seem even more underexposed, almost like it was a mistake- which I don’t believe it was. I’m not really good with studio lighting so I don’t know immediately how to rectify this, if it wasn’t for her pose, I’d suggest a crop, but the position of her legs really add balance- but I find the impact of her position and the subtle lighting on her really improves if I cover the floor with my hand when I look at the image. Maybe one to think about next time. Overall, a really creatively lit and interesting portrait, moody and sullen, let down a little by the lighting on the ground, but otherwise very strong photographically.

Creativity 5/5 – Great shot, obviously planned out and artistically taken.
Composition 4/5 – I think you could have zoomed in just a little so the subject filled more of the lens.
Color/contrast 5/5 – I agree with "More Attitude" that it is a dark shot, a bit underexposed, but I think that really adds to a kind of gothic feel to the photo. I the the use of light was masterful and really does give highlight only to certain areas of the subject.
Capture 4/5 – Very nice piece overall, I really think you have a successful photo here.

Mav,
I’ve really enjoyed what I’ve seen to date of your your photo collection (especially this photoset) and your sense of humor. Having Dyllan (Lisa) as a subject has got to be a photographers dream. I miss her (as I’m sure you and many others do) in Pgh. Aloha, I hope she comes back to shoot many, many more times. This from a transplanted Pittsburgher serving time in hell (a.k.a. Wash DC).
Keep up the good work….
