done this with Lou a while ago. Used one beauty dish to her left, settings were F8 and 200 iso. David

I tried to like this, David, but I can't really be too wild about it.

The first thing that struck me was the pink ting to the upper 1/2. Did you mean to do that to warm it?

Secondly, the lighter upper body and darker lower doesn't look right.

Finally it is not clear if she has something in her and, and if so, what? It is a glass? She is not even aware of it, and that seems to be all wrong. And what are those little round things below her hand? That whole area is confusing to me.

I am glad that you said that this was an earlier shot, because it is not up to your current standards.

Like skipper I found the uneven lighting taking far too much of my attention and for me it works better with a crop just under her elbow.

I like the eye contact but not the hairclip and although I like the mono I'm wondering if a colour version might be better.
