About This was intended to be in color, but I tried it in B&W and preferred it. Although, the point of this hair/makeup is meant to be "mod" and I don't think it has a very mod feel in the B&W.

I will probably post the color version as well.

This is cool. I'm starting (JUST starting) to learn portraiture. If you could do this . . . maybe you have some pointers to share. I put up my first two today and would love a critique and an idea on what I need to do to improve. This is gorgeous!

Doyle I <~~~~~

absolutely gorgeous melanie! beautiful light in your eyes!! I'm sure the colour version is also stunning :)


Howie Mudge   {K:27580} 6/14/2006
Very professional Melanie. Your eyes are perfect in this capture and I especially like the way you've done your hair. Classic look and skin tones look excellent. Well done.


Melanie Reynolds   {K:9090} 6/14/2006
Thanks, Howie. Funny you should use those words because I was considering titling this "classic" :)


Paul Lara   {K:86864} 6/14/2006
Tone? Perfect.
Exposure? Perfect.
Crop? Impeccible.
Rule of thirds? Still rules.

You ROCK, Melanie. If I'm ever reincarnated as a beautiful woman, I want YOU to take my portraits!!

one word: B E A U T Y F U L L !!!
You and the shot...
You have a 60s model's look, here in Italy we say: "Una bellezza senza tempo" - "A beauty that has no time"
A man can spend a lot of time only watching you: your husband must be so proud...


Melanie Reynolds   {K:9090} 6/14/2006
Giulio, that is what I was going for in this shot, the 60's thing.

You are always so kind...::blushing::... I know my husband loves me a whole lot, but as far as the photos go... he just thinks it's weird. LOL He doesn't understand it at all!

Thank you!

stunning. beautiful bw tones.

what part of cali do you live in is it up north? or here in southern cali? we are having a UF/Flickr mixer coming up and if your here in southern cali it would be nice to meet with you.


Melanie Reynolds   {K:9090} 6/14/2006
Thanks, Trish!

Technically I live in Southern California, but it's more central. It is in Kern County, just north of LA County. Where are ya'll meeting up? I'd like to do it, but it's hard for me to get away a lot of the time! Let me know when and where.
