Really like the color palette and compositions. #3 is my favorite.

1 & 2 would have been keepers if you had kept the OOF branches and leaves out of the foreground. Number 3 is killer.

Wow, LOVE these!!

Paco, Doug, Leslie, I appreciate the comments, thanks.

Very nice work. Personally I think I like osome of the ones in your second thread a little better, but all of them are very well done. #3 is great. You used the flare and blowouts very well. It doesn't seem forced or overdone. I wish there was a little more backdground in #1 and less open space, but still nice, and I like the closer #2 with just that touch of foreground bokeh putting her more in the environment rather than posed in front of it.

I agree with Doug re the OOF branches. #3 is really good.

wow, those are really nice. Really like the "look" of the model and the colors.

[mrdepew]

really like the colors on all of them. #3 is my favorite with the flair, highlights and wind in the hair.

really nice set, love the first one it just pops!

3 for me as well. A redhead in fall...wow! Makes for a very nice color palate.

Really like number three. Her eyes are amazing too.

[HotHolly]

these are very nice!

I'm not even close to being a portrait Photographer, but some time I just like to mention one that brings me back to the thread. With that in mind, nbr 3 is the one that I keep coming back to, I really like it!!
It makes me feel like she is a friend & makes me wonder what is on her mind, the photo gives a feeling of "closeness" to me as a viewer. I don't know if that even makes sense, just a very good photo IMO!!
(I'm not an expert, just a "spectator" on these things)!

Very nice Dan. And I agree with the comments re: #3, very well done.
