Fitness Shoot

I recently took some fitness shots of a good a friend of mine. I haven't had the time yet to post-process all the shots, but I have played around with a couple of them. I have obviously done a good deal of manipulation to both these photo's... I do not plan on doing this with the rest, but it was fun to make them a little more artistic and a little less realistic. :)

This one is my favorite of the two, although my boyfriend disagrees with me. He likes the one below better. He doesn't like that she is off center in this photo... that's an easy fix but I prefer that she isn't directly in the middle. I like the imperfectness of it. That's what I love about photography, the beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. I also LOVE how the light is reflecting off her arms... after all, I wanted them to be the focal point of the shot and the light really helps highlight them.



I'm not sure how I feel about the alignment of the mountains with her head in this shot... I wish the mountain peak was a little bit more to the right and she was a little bit more to the left, that way they would equal each other out - I think that would have looked pretty cool. But, either way, the chick is ripped and the photo definitely shows that!
