 Senior photos for a friend, this is Aubrey. Standing in the train track, a few minutes later, an AMTRAK came whirling by!

Taken in RAW format, and only really edited raw wise.

- Boosted contrast
- Turned up the shadows
- Increased Exposure
- turned up Sharpening
- and modified the curve to add more shadows

OK, nice compossition; maybe just on the verge of too much sharpening but OK. I don't know but maybe the horizontal wire could have been cloned out.

I like the title - it aids your image. Too bad about the wire going through her head. I do like the colors and shadows though.

avg vote, I like the lighting and dof... maybe a little more lighting on the front torso and she is a touch blury... but mainly its her stance. She is has a friendly kinda silly smile on her face but is standing like 'i am woman' (not sure how to explain it... like she is the boss)... doesn't flow right with mood set in the pic

I really like this shot, except the wire running through her head. I think advanced editing rules would let you clone that out.

Neat photo, I would have cloned out that wire in the background, it's going right through her head.

good DOF and composition, too much shadows in front of her and on her front for my taste.

I like it .... 'cept for the line running through her head. This being Advanced Editing, you could have cloned it out...
