John,

A very nice set.

I like how the color version has the girl in the center with the two on either side side creating a nice triangular composition.
Lighting must have been difficult.

The mono is just a bit too contrasty for me John. The colour works best for me and it's a nice action portrait.

Hi Sergio,

Yes, in this case lighting was designed for stimulating the brain not camera sensors. Thanks for commenting.

Hi John,

Yes the mono version was a bit harsh in color as well. Thanks for commenting.

Hi John, I like the color image Mono looks harsh as you and John have already mentioned.

Hi Binnur,

Here's another that I deliberately underexposed but in color.

Thanks for commenting.

IMO although you underexposed the image, you still need to deal with the highlights especially on her face. I would crop this image above the window , it might look better

Binnur,

Thanks for suggestions and comments.

Hard lighting, John...still it came out all well exposed enough to see something going on there. I would have had a bad night if I get to shoot this kind of scenes. Good ones.

Hi Izzie,

I just experimented with ISO and keep it low enough (ISO 4000) to be manageable. Thanks for commenting.
