Thanks, Larry! For the pointers and kind words.
I agree with you on both images. I left that yellow overly bright
thinking it would help bring out her eyes in 5354, but it turns out to
be more of a distraction. And I bumped up the green a bit too much
trying to lend a little color to an otherwise extremely bland
background, but it appears I OD'd a bit.
BTW -- I ended up doing the whole thing without a tripod, as I had left
it leaning up against the wall when I went to meet her, and didn't want
to delay things by going to get it. I suppose I could've gotten more
images to turn out if I'd brought one, though I wonder if I would've
thought to take many lower angle shots if I had.

Me again.
First off, I just want to thank everyone who's been so willing to help me out
with advice. It really is helping me to know what to look out for on my next
session -- whenever that'll be -- and I do appreciate it.
I've just added about ten more shots to the ones posted earlier, and below is posted the
link to the first of the ten, or so, I just uploaded. Click "Next" as needed,
or as directed by your physician.

Nice work.
5353 seems a bit green, and 5354 seems to have weird color balance.
You definitely have some keepers in that set.
As two and a half hours work, I think I came out with respectable number of
usable photos, and am overall pleased with my first attempt at portraiture.
Anyway, I'd like any thoughts anyone may have to offer on where I went right,
and where I went wrong, or could've done better (aside from the shiny ares,
which I find eternally vexing and irksome).
Again, thanks to all of you.
Best,
Walt
