You got up close and personal with this one Michael!!
Quite a stunning portrait showing good lighting and BG. What type of diffuser do you use on the flash?

Hi Michael,

Good portrait and a good job of blending the subject and the background. Good to see you have a new Sigma 150/2.8. That is one of my favorite lenses.


Couldnt help but notice the upper left edge is is overly bright and more importantly missing detail. I would select that area and darken or multiply to improve the image. Also you might want to add a little USM to bring up the detail level.

Thanks for posting.

Robert

Hey Michael, really interesting comp. Good details and I like the color combinations. I would agree with Roberts suggestions.
