100 views per hour and no comments--is it a boring image, or have I been blacklisted? Thanks, Derek

Critique..

Hard shadow on her face camera right because the hair I guess
Stool should be painting white
She has one arm. Why?
Bare shoulder on the wrong side. Should be camera side.

Thanks for the feedback, I agree with everything except the bare shoulder on the wrong side. I also can't decide about the one arm thing. It didn't bother me before because it didn't occur to me, but should it have occurred to me? Thanks again. Derek

No problem

If I have a girl wearing a top that exposes a shoulder, I usually want to see it. Otherwise, what's the point in having it...

Being an old dirty man, has nothing to do with creating a good image, and paying attention to details. I mean, the whole pose and shot should have been taken from the other side of her, based on lighting placement and her hair style.

If you can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen, mom always said.

Right back at you. I guess I should have put the little smiley face in so you could get the joke--Justin got the joke. And why don't I see you at the meetings anymore?

Title is "not NSFW" because that would be a simple way to get people to view it. Dneufarth accuses "us" of being dirty old men and yet uses an acronym to pull us in.

By the way, Dneufarth, suggesting the bare shoulder be shown isn't "dirty", it's just good photography. As the image stands, the bare not being shown is poor directing. So, I have to agree, as the image stands, it's boring. That's a shame, too, because it does have good possibilities for being a good image.

By labeling the photo as "Not NSFW" the OP is indicating that the photo is safe for work.

The photo is benign.

For comments - what exactly are you trying to get this image to show/project ?

I see this critique a lot, but I was always confused about it. Is there some sort of universal photography rule that requires both arms to be shown at all times when their torso is shown?

Doesn't look like there's any bare shoulder, to be honest. The dress has a collar that flips down and is lower on the chest on the left side than on the right side.

As for the picture itself, she has a "deer in the headlights" look on her face. I think a different facial expression would be better. Otherwise, good lighting and exposure.

My dirty old man comment was a joke, I will start using the smiley face to indicate humor in the future. And btw, I changed the title after the bare shoulder comment just to be funny, not to get more viewers--a girl's name is usually sufficient to draw attention to a post. Thanks for the comment, Derek

Steve, I was trying to project warmth and vitality in the context of fashion. I would appreciate any thoughts along those lines. Thanks, Derek

decent shot. but perhaps warmer colour over all (less dull tones in the her section and glossier skin) and less of a stunned facial expression would help you achieve your goal.

I think Pfiltz nailed it, minus the bare shoulder comment. But i have to agree, I would like to see more shoulder. Do you get to shoot again with her? I hope so - it would be nice to see more of her.
