straight into the camera.

Until recently, Ive had all my models look above the camera for a more natural look, but now I like them looking directly into the camera, more intensity. What you think about that, and for people with darker colored eyes how would you grab that intensity. Other than the eyes, what you think about the retouch!

What gave it away? Five foot piles of snow, sheets of ice and sweaty topless dudes are quite common in some areas.

If you don't want criticism, don't ask for it.

You asked how the composition looked, and pixelzombie told you the lighting inconsistencies between BG and figure were noticeable.

IMO a valid observation.

If you're just looking for people to tell you how wonderful you are, then you've come to the wrong place.
