Quite a few images to look at posted recently. That was really elegant lighting you chose for the picture of Ymke. The delicate edge lighting on the right side of her face stops it being too even. I could see this one working well as colour given it is really quite subtly lit. I had some initial impressions on the portrait of Pieter. We have the sharpest focus on the line of nostril and lip. In fact minute details there that sort of deflect my attention. But the OOF parts of the face are almost rendered too smoothly for me. This might be just part of the digital rendition though. I suppose just re-reading that I am talking about expecting the sharpest focus to be in the plane of the right pupil. That's quite conventional, I know. Or maybe even just some more DoF ?. I do really like the pose, your lighting and exposure decision. The right hand glasses lenses has an effect as if it is opaque, thought I think it is just that we are seeing a featureless OOF area through it.
