I like the first two photos a lot, the second one being my favorite. I'm a bit less enthused by the third and fourth images. I guess I need a bit more time to decide whether I like them or not.

+1. Im with Francois on this one. The first two really work for me and in particular the second.

+2

I think what's bothering me on 3 and 4 is that they feel framed too tight

Country, two more shots with M8 and Tele-Tessar 4/85.

I particularly like the 1st one as you have captured a great 'moment' and the sensuous curve of her hip gives a nice sense of movement. Great shot.

The second [new] image doesn't do much for me. I can't see the face very well and I wouldn't be able to understand the scene if you didn't post the previous images.

I agree with Josh, the first [new] image is interesting and dynamic. On the whole set of images, I still like #2 best!
