Here are 5 images of Carmen. I shot these for stock photographs. I have also been playing around with gradient maps to create some different looking results. Comment and crits are always appreciated.

Hi Johan,

No images are loading from Europe or the East Coast of the USA it seems! The New York times loaded very very slowly but not BBC or the Wall Street Journal. So something is strange. OPF loads fast!

So when your images load, I'll comment!

Thanks for sharing anyway!

Hi Johan,

They now loaded immediately. There really must have been some branch of the internet overloaded! I like the very first photograph as it so cleanly made. In the last picture, maybe touch up the top of the left thigh to deal with skin creases.

Thanks for sharing,

Asher

#2

#2 is beautiful - no nits to pick from me on that. The others are a bit hot for my taste and the color treatments don't work. Agree with Asher about smoothing the wrinkles out of her hip.

Thank you for taking the time to look and comment folks. Something I really want to do this year is work on the studio and make it feel a little less like a studio with the correct backgrounds/wallpaper and add some nice props as well. I feel something is missing in my work and the story which I would like to have come across is not there. i appreciate the feedback, thanks.

regards

Johan
