And that can be seen in all you give us on TDF. I really was speechless when I saw the difference in that pic of Narumi. I had trouble thinking of the right words to complement your photograph.Swan wrote:Thanks so much Dees! I'm striving to get better at this everyday.

I just found your thread. Was pretty impressed at first, then you got some advice from AH and Stacy. Dude!!! don't know what to say.
THIS!
She's real. Yeah, I know she's not alive, but she IS. "Well done" aint enough.

I see that golden nugget of advice that AH provided as priceless. I had heard that the first thing you notice about a person is their eyes, which I very much agree with in pics of girls and IRL. What I did not expect was the amazing change in adjusting the doll eyes upward of about 1mm. I tried it on Nikki-Thera and her expression was amazingly different.
AH also mentioned placing a ball between the neck and chin. I used my finger to apply a little pressure behind her chin and her mouth began to close, removed her tongue and her mouth closed completely.
I am starting to understand that although her surroundings and general posing is important, these small adjustments to what I thought was a static expression can completely change the picture.
Your inspiration has passed onto me and probably not the only one. Thank you Swan and also to AH.
