[Leica] IMG: Gemma the roller derby girl

[Philippe]

I believe Lluis meant the shadows on the face - looks too contrasty here too, on the verge of the grim, particularly the eyes
I’d also address the imbalance of colours as the blues are either flashy (shirt marking and hair), or too present (unnaturally blue background shadows)

But I may be wrong :-)

Amities
