Here's another blast from the past...

Amanda wanted some shots to send to her husband serving with the 82nd Airborne in Iraq and these are a few from what we came up with.

Likes #3, got the feels .. :biggrin:

Not sure about #1 .. guess I should try 1 myself to understand better ..

I'm a fan of #2 - that's a shot he should be proud to show around the barracks.
Very classy.

Hey Woody, very good - nr 2 stands out though, classy & elegant, great lighting & composition! :biggrin: nr 1, I am not sure about the PP there... but I guess it just boils down to taste! Thanks for sharing, very good stuff as usual :smile:

Beautiful Woody. I am always stunned by the quality of your portraits. I bet the chap was very pleased to have such great images of his wife to remind him of home and her love.

All Superb Woody! I really love the light and toning in no 1

Great lighting Woody! 2 and 3 are very nice - I especially like the model's eyes. On 1, I like everything but the toning.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

The first one was the result of "I wonder what would happen if I did this" experiment. I had finished the skin layer and selected the background layer and started playing with Hue Saturation. So the skin layer blocked out areas of the blue-shifted layer. If I were to do this today, I'd do it in a way where only the hair was blue.

I took these about 2-3 years ago.

Great job Woody!! #1 is an awesome shot!! The only thing that would have made #2 better would be the ring being on her left hand (wedding ring). #3 is just amazing, I think that's the one that will used during "private time"... :biggrin:

Well those should drive the guy nutzzzz:>))))))))

 

[greyflash]

I like them all Woody, I would probably opt to not have the lipstick stand out quite so much on #1 but still love the shot. In fact pictorially I like the pose in #1 the best. Very nice and your model's husband will like these I am sure.

Great stuff! #2 is my fave and #1 could be in a fashion mag... I don't know, selling the new "Ice" perfume...

 

[Seneca]

I think he'll be more than pleased. The B&W one is awesome.

Great processing.....the jewelry in #2 an #3 looks amazing.

 

[cuss2much]

excellent work...

I like number 2 the best...

Im a fan of #2 and #3, but as Don said #2 is classy.
