Wow, ok, you have come a long way with your lighting. Only a slight shadow on her right arm where a reflector would get rid of that.
Only thing I don't like and it's not anything to do with the lighting and that is the top that the model is wearing. I know it's meant to be tight but it is pinching her skin on the left side under her arm, it doesn't look comfortable for her and looks ugly in ...

Bl**dy hell that's amazing
You have got to do something with this shot
I'm in 2 minds whether you need the other bird in the shot.
Take it out as the other is a very strong image on it's own
or
Leave it in as it finishes off a most fantastic image
I am soooo impressed by this

It's always good to put a face to a name
Don't like the background, unless you are going for that effect. I use a cloth background and would go nuts if I saw that many crinkles and folds.
I guess that you have used the dodge and burn tool as your arms and face look mottled. Also don't like the shadows of your glasses on your face.

A good shot but I would have preferred it in a different format than this letter box.
When I saw the thumbnail in the gallery I thought it was something totally different. It's such a magnificent shot that it deserves to be shown properly and not squeezed into a panoramic format.
This format does nothing for the shot
Sorry

Agree with Jacko that its not sharp and also the framing is a tad off. It would be good to see the whole butterfly.
Shame because it would have been a good shot :(

That is one heck of a good shot!!!!
Worthy of a magazine front page, did you shoot in RAW or J-peg?
Excellent and as Bob simply says "Its got it all!"
There is one thing on here that I would definitley do though and that is to clone out the guy coming out of the singers mouth! That's one reason and because you have turned the image it looks like it has been turned doe to that guy, do y ...

Thank you. Unfortunately not a well caught because of those blurred trees...
:) I wouldn't be hard on yourself, that is a great capture! Lovely colouring. I love the shape of it. You can feel the power.
Excellent
Paul :)

Excellent sunset, I much prefer this one than the other one that's on here.
The sun on the sea is great, well taken and well exposed!

Never seen fireworks captured like this before, but.....I love it
Totally different way of doing it and that frame around it looks fantastic. I'm not a great fan of frames as some look OTT, but you have done this one extremely well.
Well done
Paul :)
