Fori Imperiali with Siria.

[Lindros]

While walking around Fori Imperiali (ancient Rome) with my girlfriend Siria, I maked some shoot.

Let me know if you like them.

Thanks for commenting.

As for me, I like these images. Some will undoubtedly argue about the lamp post in the first image, but in looking at it, I think it helps anchor her within the frame. I can only narrow it down to the first two images when trying to select a favorite and each has it's merits. I think the third image would have been better had she turned her head slightly to her right to give better definition to the shape of her face.

All in all a nice set of images of a lovely young woman. Thank you for sharing.

Thanks. I do appreciate.

I know that light is not perfect (was changing fastly because is was a partially cloudy day). Probably I have to fill with flash light when I'm near to the subject (no external flash still).

Nice shots.
I actually like the quality of the light. Nice!
One thing I'd say is if you have directional light like in the first one, try to use it like a softbox. For instance if she was turned around 180 degrees, she'd have had a nice short lighting pattern on her face and it might have looked even nicer.
As they are, though, I like them.
In the third one, it's a nice expression and smile. Makes me feel like I know her. Hard to explain, just seems you caught her personality nicely there.

Thanks Fran.

For sure I have to improve with directional light.

I'm happy that I reached to transmit Siria's personality through my shoots.
She is a joyful and "sunny" girl so is a "must" to shoot her while she's smiling

Really nice shots, imo. The depth of field made for a very pretty bokeh. The only suggestion I have is to watch her arm in poses like #1, where she seems to have her hand on the pole - it makes her elbow stick out behind her a bit, causing a bump on her back.

#3 is beautiful. Lovely smile. She looks kinda like Sandra Bullock in that one.

Thanks so much.

You are totally right. The pose in #1 is not good..I must be more careful.

About the similarity...I will tell this to Siria...for sure she will be happy
