I like the pics but think it you better if she has direct eye contact.. PIC 2 - I like best.. although no eye contact.. it give one the impression that she is deep in thoughts... something like that This one U wanted the effect this way ?? CPL would work best here... BBBV strikes again LOL.. Wa at least the 135mm got some tasty subject to shoot ;D

CPL would be a big help... but... sorry.... 77mm CPL very ex leh... Owner never lend lah... lol.... As for eye contact, I do have photos with eye contact... will be resizing them and posting them up over the next day or 2.... THanks for the advice... Cheers

Yo Bro, like what I always tell people, do not join mass orgy model / portrait shoot especially if you are a newbie.
You will not learn anything from it. You are wasting your money. All you gain is looking at pretty hot babes, that's all.
For newbies, you should go for TFCD kind of shoot.
You photos have further illustrated my points. No offence, Bro.
I will explain to you the next time when we meet up on why did I say that.

I have alot of advice from the organiser... and other more experienced photographers there... I'm sure there's more to learn... I've only touched the surface of the water. I don't intend to dive in with both feet yet. But... in steps... Anyway... I was looking and listening to how other photographers conducted themselves and how they communicate with the model. By the way... what's "TFCD"... Cheers
