In the second she is facing more directly towards the camera, so I centred her more is this photo, but filled as much of the frame as I could with limited space above her head.
Any questions so far??

In the following two photos you can see how I composed the face. In the first photo the girl is facing to the left and so I positioned her more over to the right to give the feeling of space to the left.
In the second she is facing more directly towards the camera, so I centred her more is this photo, but filled as much of the frame as I could with limited space above her head.
Any questions so far??

There is a bit of "pak wan" (sweet mouth) in all of us Mike. The ladies love it.

Fill in Flash:
Ok gents, you have the lady back in the room on a lovely Thai or where ever you are sunny afternoon. You think yeah she would look great posing in the window area or on the balcony while you shoot from inside the room. Everything looks perfect, she is playing up to the camera and you take your shots.
You review them on the monitor of your camera and to your disappointment she appears as just a silhouette. What can you do?
Well the easiest thing to do is force your flash to go off and therefore illuminate the subject. You can use this technique outside in daylight also where the sun is behind the subject.
The lovely Liou was kind enough to assist me in illustrating this point.

All the photos I post are more or less as I saw the subject at the time of taking the shot. I don't have Photoshop, too complicated for my good self. To edit my photos I use this useful free sofrware.

I always resize my photos to 800 x 600. Recently I have been using the Shapen/Blur tool and the Enhance Colors tool but besides that bit of tweaking what you see is what I saw at the time.

My pleasure Petesie. We will see pretty soon in the trip reports who has read this, and more importantly taken it on board. There is nothing as bad, in my opinion, as a photo of a hot ladyboy in the room with her face exactly in the middle of a landscape frame. We are missing so much of the body. Why the guys cannot turn the camera around to portrait position and move her head to the top of the frame to maximise the amount of body I don't know. To me it just makes sense. Now there should be no excuses.Excellent stuff this BB! Thanks to Kliome for the initiative and your good self to show us the way....top man!
Anyway lets hope more BMs add their advice here.

For APS-C, the resized format is 900 x 600. Applicable to Canon-450D, Canon-500D, Canon-550D, Canon-7D and many others.All the photos I post are more or less as I saw the subject at the time of taking the shot.

Alternative software is the ImageMagick package, where the mogrify command is very useful for bulk resizing etc, as well as GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), both free software available for Linux, Windows, and Mac OS.

Horizons.
So you decide to spend a day at the beach with your chosen lady. The water looks like a great place to take some shots so your shoot some nice photos. You get the girl posing like you want her, and then review the photos. They look great, but damn the horizon is slanting at an angle. This a common mistake guys make. They are so preoccupied with the model the forget the background.
The software I mentioned earlier allows you to rotate the photo to level the horizon. See the difference it makes in the examples below. Again always trying to fill the frame to give that close up feeling with your subject.
