Natural Light

Hi guys, I'm just an amateur who fell in love with photography and bought a camera 8 months ago. I took this pic of a friend some months ago while visiting a castle in Switzerland with her. I would appreciate your CC!! I just want to improve!

Looks good! Nice light and composition. Appears the photography bug bit the right person. :-)

Thank you Craig!

Wonderful use of the window light and great composition. Her face looks a bit too over-retouched at least in the resolution available here, like porcelain skin with a tad too soft shadows.

Thank you for the feedback Christian, I agree with you on that the retouching looks a bit too much at this resolution. At higher resolution it looks a little better since it's possible to see some of the skin texture (I used frequency separation). Still I think next time I'll go easier with the retouching. Cheers

Nice light but looks like she is posing for a Photographer. You need to get her to feel the part, a bit more. Not eaasy and it is just about interaction, not photography but is a vital skill to a people photographer. I think I would have let more room into the shot behind her to relax the image.
