Had a walk on the sea with my girl and she turned her head to my exactly the right moment :) Hope you like this picture!
some minor adjustments : cropping, contrast and brightness and a bit of blur for the bg.

Very graceful... quite a stately personality. Well done portrait with good management of light. Well done Panos - best wishes to you and your girlfriend.

Hi Panos,

Lovely portrait of her. I like the way the sun has illuminated highlights on her hair, yet the face remains free from harsh light and shadow. I like her expression too... very nice.

Yiassas! Lisa (not sure how to spell that :D)

Hello!
Uhh very beautiful women :)
Lovely portrait :)
Regards
Piotr

Really nice capture, panos. I like the calm light on her face and the suns reflection in the hair, but I would prefer that she was more centret.
Beautiful girl by the way. :)

TFS
best regards
Henning

Congratulations on such a nice model :-) Nice placement in the frame, but you chose the background rather carelessly, imo. It would be nice to give the face more diffused light, could be reflected from a piece of white paper.

Hey Panos!
Definetely a great model that you've got there, she certainly has a grace about her, two technical observations, one, I think the lighting would have been better if you had taken the photo from the other side (Since you had taken it, with the sun against you), and the second observation, is the crop which has too much negative and unnecessary space!

Cheers

The composition is unusual: normally negative space is "in front" of the subject, i.e. in the direction they are facing. Here, you have it behind her, making it feel a little unnatural.

Even so, it's a crisp, clean portrait of a beautiful woman. The light in particular is great, with sunlight on her hair and warm reflected light on her face.
