I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

An afternoon out on the water
It was mid September late in the afternoon, a group of sailboats were out on the water enjoying the weather, there was a soft breeze blowing, pushing on the sails.

Nothing to say but excellent. Good job.
Obviously these things are to taste, but first headshot I would go tighter, and less contrasty (no shadow of the nose), using a fill in the other side.
the second, I would fix the shadow in the background (left), it is something that draws attention.
Terms of expression, I would either ask to close mouth completely or try to make her laugh and shoot a few, see if you get something genuine.
Nice shots! The second is my favorite. I would like to have seen just a tiny bit more light on the front/right side of her hair. Something else to play with is Peter Hurley’s “hold the sub” technique.
