Seeing that photography wasn't in this section in the good old days, I just have to break it in. :)
I have been photographing amateur models since last summer. This shot is from today when I was photographing in a forest and was not planned at all. Fire away with comments. :)

I'm not a photographer, but I think the pine cones on the neck seem to draw a little too much focus (actual focus as well as attention). Other than that the colours all work well and nothing seems out of focus that shouldn't be. It's a nice picture.
I like her eyes, or rather, the way you captured her eyes, good job :thumb:
Alice is a food one too
An excellent shot. I'm not sure the cones cause me that much trouble for me but taking T-Bags point you could add a little darkening vignette and tone their sharpness down a bit. Other than removing the little mark on the models neck I can't see anything else and you have a really great image. I bet the model was pleased.
No expert but I would loose the cones around her neck.
Also I would have not cropped her hair out on the left side.
Nice image though well done:)
Fit as :p

This bit has had me confused since the OP tbh. I mean, what happened, there you were taking photos trees and suddenly this beautiful woman comes up to you and the next minute you've persuaded her to lie down in the pine cones? I tip my hat to you Mats, you silver-tongued devil you. :P
