See if you like this one better.

I do Bob, although the pose is not a natural one - the left foot extended to raise up the knee wouldn't be held for long. The culvert looking thing to the left above her head is also somewhat distracting, but as I said, I like this image - the overall pose, exposure & the subject.

I did do a bit of modeling in my day think the

is unflattering to them.  Again, it looks like she
is straining to
hold the pose to me - and as someone else put it
(I'm skimming, so I
can't remember who it was) she looks statue-like.


Actually, she is a former dancer and was moving to music during the shoot. She was not holding any poses. That's not the way I work. I give the model an idea and let her work with it. I always consider the final product a collaboration between the two of us, rather than my work alone.

See if you like this one better. It was taken about a minute later. The model loves them both, FWIW:
