Hi Albert,

It says "password protected" so we cannot see the image.

Hi Albert,

I saw this post has now had 200 views and no one left any comments for you.

So I will give you a few to get the flow going.

This group portrait looks well lit, well exposed and "formally" composed.

Just looking over the image, I don't see any significant "faults" or "mistakes."

So, for this type or style of image it looks good.

What would I change?

One thing...I would eliminate the object on the far left (dividing screen).

Other possible changes would change the "style" of this significantly.

Another observation: because of the posing and the lack of interaction, I cannot tell if this is a family, a musical group, or a bunch of employees.

My Simple Suggestions (based on my own POV):

1. IF a family, show more closeness and interaction

2. IF a musical group, give us more of a sense of music and "unity."

3. IF a group of employees, put them all on the same level.

4. IF a group of friends, show more interaction

I hope these comments and suggestions help you.

I like the picture overall.

As stated previously the thing on the left is distracting and you have to wonder why it's there.

The only other thing is that you really don't get a feel for what the relationship is between the people here.

Otherwise a nice setup and nice exposures.

Thanks Steady & Ray!

I like your suggestions and observations

I thought the partition might "tighten" the image as a whole and provide a transtion into the backdrop.... instead of being a distraction.

I'll work on some more "personal" poses as well.

Nice lighting; the guy second from left looks a little greasy, you might want to clean him up a little.
