I know it's ten days early, but I just want to say that this photo set is a very anticipated set for me. It looks hot!!!! |

I'm picking #316 as THE one that says, "Yes, I'm beautiful".
Of course, this being a tribute to a lazy Sunday, sometimes you just want it raw, with no pretense. I mean, #304 is the shot if you want me to put the beer and remote on the table and focus on your needs.  _________________ In a perfect world, you get all Alley, all the time. |

Was that color cast intentional? If so, it hurt the set. This should have been natural lighting with a reflector to bounce light from the window onto Alley. The indoor lighting was way too harsh. Did Harvey takes these photographs? I would be surprised if he did? Someone needs a class on proper lighting techniques. |

Careful Thor. Being honest and calling a spade a spade can get you into trouble in this forum  |

Everything I said was valid. I wasn't being mean just honest. The color cast(golden I am guessing) didn't work.If it was a color balance issue it could have been fixed in Photoshop. I assume the photographs are shot in raw format which would make the color correction even easier. The indoor lighting is indeed harsh. Look at all of the hot spots. In some there is almost no detail. As I said I would be surprised if the quality of Harvey's work fell this low. So that would mean that the person who took these photographs is lacking in photographic lighting techniques. Nothing I said here should have caused a problem. |

I wasn't criticizing you or your comment, just speaking from personal experience. |

Oh yes, the attack of Alley's "YES MEN".
Thanks for the heads up. |

HEY HEY HEY, Well, I agree the coloring is a bit bright....but then again I like "golden" colors. I tend to try to make things look a little bit different from time to time. I know you guys are all into perfecting lighting and such.....which is all good and all....but for me....a photo set can get kind of boring if they all have the same beautiful lighting EVERYTIME. To me....the lighting isn't beautiful it's kind of cool....with the exception of maybe 2.
Anyway, this was shot before my webmaster had his private lesson from Harvey.
With all this said....I STILL REALLY LOVE most of the pics!!
