I had just gotten this length of fishing net (not fishnet) so had to try it out. Results? OK but nothing great--here are some:

Great fishing net images. I like it. What don't you?

Like I said--they are OK but they just didn't knock my socks off! (Maybe because I'm wearing sport socks?)

Well, it appears that you caught something anyway. Colour is a little odd, but no big deal.

Goes to show, again, that simple props can be so very effective. She loves and makes love to the net... great interactive effective as she swims in a sea of blackness.

I agree. When shooting nudes, It is often more effective to tease the viewer to the point of wanting more than to have it all immediately.

Vertigo! A perfect case of "less is more!" Nice shots and I prefer the last one which is probably part of the sequence of your portraits above and shows less net. Have you tried cloning out (with black) all the extra fishing net to simplify the foreground? Otherwise, the net dominates the foreground. Be well. Ed

Sorry for second copy of the reply. BTW, how does one delete a mistaken second reply? Ed

The net adds. Check your white balance-Too magenta.

Your model is a very sensuous woman. Definitely work with her and keep developing new images.

Like #4 - has a "madonna" look to it, except for the curly armpit hair. <grin> Agree with others on too much foreground net and off-color on #1-3. But nice experiment.

Straight out of the camera so blame the engineer who set up the internal conversion from RAW to JPG. A lot of talk here about someones personal vision of color balance--forgetting I guess the vagrancies of monitors--use the same adjust equipment on two different brands-side by side- and your eyes can see a difference when you see "done." Brightness should not change the balance but depending on make and model it does. Many check UHH on their phone--big difference from a monitor. What looks good to one person--the computer engineer who set the camera model--looks horrible to me. Composition "rules" are really composition "suggestions." But they do have validities, greater artists than even you--Rembrandt, Michelangelo or DaVinci--used them and their works still stand.

In a digital photo I believe the end product that is shown is the photographers ultimate responsibility. When showing it on systems world wide there are known standards for white balance.
