As always Mike you are full of good advice. I am going to practice these backlit situations so I can get it right next time.

I agree, I like the first one better also - and I did crop it in closer last night. To me it isn't really portrait vs. figurative...it's more about finances. I wasn't hired to do a portrait, so deciding what will make it possible to sell to strangers later is part of the equation. I wish it was a commission so I could just do a straight portrait.

I am so disappointed you do not like the dress & roses! That was really appealing to me. When I posted this one Mike, I was thinking she looks like one of the beautiful girls you always photograph.
