Hi Andreas,

Nice portrait with interesting light on the subjects face. She has a nice posture, quite serious though.

Regards,

Flavia

Hi Andreas,
So kind of you... what a beautiful gesture!
I wouldn't say that the amount of harsh light on her skin is what really worries me but the location of this harsh light.
Excellent portrait composition with good definition.
Regards,
Maria

Hi Andreas,
superb portrait...the girl has an interesting puzzled expression and the warm light adds to the atmosphere. The additional character fills the frame adequately too. I can't really make up my mind about this bamboo on the left-had side though. It's 'closing' the frame so to speak but I find it a little distracting still. Good job anyhow!

Yours,

Philippe

Hallo Andreas,
nice double portrait on this one with two very curious looks towards your camera.
I like the way the whole space in the frame is filled in leaving no space to empty useless parts.
The light hitting her face is beautiful and brings a touch of warmth which fits well with the atmosphere.
Cheers.

I remember when you mentioned about the print version in one of your posts...some time ago. What a nice portrait. I love her look...it's from someone is asking something :)) Great colors and lighting. Well done!

Impressive portrait, the light is superb and the model full of expression in the eyes, a very intense emotion.

Hallo Andreas,
sehr herausfordernder Blick, bedrängend, wenn auch auf zurückhaltende Art. Ungewöhnliche und reizvolle Aufnahme. Das Gruppenbild gefällt mir auch und die eine Dame hast Du uns bereits einmal vom gleichen Tag als Portrait präsentiert.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf
