Tiffany on the rough sand 3

Posted by Ken McCoy (Orlando-Daytona Beach, FL, United States) on 5 September 2008 in People & Portrait.

Here's another, with some more dramatic processing (adding shadows). Question: are there preferences for this or a more natural look (ie, from yesterday's post)?

Thanks, Tiffany!

Yesterdays shot was better in my opion,it had the sweeping curve of the sand and the waves in the background which made for a much more rounded photo,although todays is much more seductive I have to admit.

Interesting that I was thinking that I liked this shot better than yesterday's before I saw Anthony's comment. I also like the sand and the wave in yesterday's, but feel this pose is more graceful. Both are very well done, in any case.

Your Tiffany at the beach (or is it Tiffany covered variously with sand) series is pretty powerful; each photo stands alone and has great animal magnetism (which is to say the model and photographer are "one" in the posing and taking of these pictures)...

@Viewfinder: Thanks, Glenn! We've shot together twice before, and I think we've developed a good working rapport. Plus she's a very expressive model in her own right...

I like this shot. In my opinion, it is sexier, more senual, inviting, and just wonderful. Her breasts are lovely and showing, and the "I'm about to take everything off just for us" is great. Keep up more of this...

Regarding the question about processing: I think it depends on the shot. This one, for example, where the model's skin tone is similar to the background, probably benefits from some enhancing to create better contrast. Yesterday's shot seems to have better contrast without needing it.

@Doug: Thanks for these observation, Doug, and your others, too!
