Wayne, beautiful work. Lovely subject, as well. I think the hair light is just a bit too hot, as it is brighter than the face, but still a nice effect.

Beautiful model, great pose, nicely lit...but I agree the hair light is a tad too bright. I probably would have cropped above her halter, but that's just me.

I toned down the high lite on the hair and reprocessed, any better?

I have been adding color to B&W photos for a long time and when I have a colored photo too that has bleached out areas like your photo shows on her shoulder blade , under her eyebrow , and the spot on her upper lip . I always tone those areas down . To me the bright area grabs your eye before you see most of the photo you want people to notice . I can't speak for others on here , but that is how I see photos .It is up to you as the photographer to decide if you still want to keep these bright areas or not . The lighting under her eye , to the right of her nose , on her cheek is more what I am talking about that looks good to me .....We all have different taste .

Great job. I like the toned down hair, that did the trick. Thank you for posting your lighting diagram, it is very helpful to others.

Great work, especially the second submission. I truly appreciate your lighting diagram, too. It helps me with my portraits to see new setups and their effects.

Pretty model. Excellent photos. I like the 2nd one just a tad better, but the first one is fine too.
