Gorgeous model, nice shots. #3 is my favorite - love the comp and processing.

The painted eyebrows bother me a bit though...

What happened to her left arm.

Boating accident?

yes, it was tragic, she had to be evacuated by helicopter, luckily she lived to tell about it....

(which also explains the eyebrows?)

Beautiful shots of a gorgeous woman, oh, with or without a left arm and eyebrows.

You might want to photohax0r #3. Her eyes seem to be going in two direction. Maybe move one of the irises around to make them both point in the same direction.

I've seen those eyebrows before, but on a 50 year old woman...

Not a pretty sight

However; she wears 'em well.

What in the world are these comments about?

Why do we always have to have both arms, completely, with perfectly set eyes, symmetrical this, symmetrical that? Half of the commercial photography shows a partial something, no foot here, finger there. . . Most commercial stuff is altered and elongated and slimmed anyway.

Why oh why can't there just be a nice pic that is in focus, well lit, with a nice setting of a person? She's a person, posted in the people forum.

She is who she is, and her eyes are exactly the same because her head is turned to the right a bit.

Take a lesson from Steady and post some decent, constructive criticism. That's what this forum was supposed to be for, and used to be about. No wonder it's hard to get new people to stay around.

Are the left arm comments a joke? I hope so.

She does the eye brows thing pretty well. It's obviously drawn on but still looks good. Maybe if she blended the inside edge a little it would look a bit more natural, but it doesn't bother me in it's current state.

The photos are well lit with the best poses in 3 and 1. #2 looks a little awkward.

Pretty gal.

And if you don't shoot her often, you should tell her that photographers from around the world complimented her look so it'll give her confidence and give you an easier time with convincing her to model for you again.

#3 is really good. #3. And those dimples. I'm a sucker for dimples. Wow.

Yes the eyebrows are painted on that that in itself is rather weird to me, but I have to state for the record that the expression they give her is incredibly attractive and provocative. It's that expression that makes me want to talk to her and figure out what she finds so amusing.
