Re: my girl

BW photogrpahy can be realy difiicult to do, The tonal ranges are massive, but basically you should be going frm white, right through to black, otherwise they can look flat. More light on the side of her face will give a better definition and add more shadows and highlights and prevent it looking a little "flat"

Shes a pretty girl, you must be proud!

Re: my girl

Midday shooting is awful! The sun is high and cast shadows down - Try to get shadows off to the side, especially when it comes to noses! This one has some nice shadows
