Allen, the women are beautiful, exude confidence and polish and are very pleasing to the eyes!

I really like the first one, and the last one is great as a street portrait (was it a street portrait or a planned shoot?).
I wish there was some more light on her face in the second shot though, and maybe the exposure could be brought up just a pinch as well. Great work otherwise. What lens were you using for 1 and 2?

Thanks Daniel. And yes the last one is a street portrait. A man I photographed in Key West a couple of weeks ago. Not planed just rolled up on him. Had a great conversation with him. I photographed him with a Leica M 10 Monochrom and a 35 1.4 Summilux FLE lens.
The two color shots were shot with M 10 and a Voightlander 50mm 1.2 Nokton. The second looks a lot better larger. There are catch lights in the eyes that get lost here and the compressed jpg is also darker than the original. Kinda didn't want the highlights on the skin to jump off the scale and they are close on the original.

Noting and liking your choice of backgrounds for the ladies.

Stunning portraits Allen. The balance between background and subject is astonishing in the color images—the backgrounds stand out, but still highlight the subjects. Your photography is so brilliant, and it always inspires me to do mine better.

I always love your portraits, Allen. Even though it's better than I can do, so I'm totally armchair quarterbacking, but I feel like the second isn't quite up to your usual standard. It might be an illusion, but it feels ever so slightly tilted where I'm tilting my head looking at it.

Thanks for the comments David. The vert lines/walls look good on my monitor. Maybe the horz is running down to the rt?
Thanks again.

BTW my fav is the b&w of the guy from Key West.
