OH, BUT BEAUTIFUL AND DANGERSOUS1
The adjustments to these images involved CS5 and a bit of cropping. Many single images contain multiple opportunities to create a different feel. Also, Monique is a good example of how facial expression controls beauty. People often say, "I don't take good pictures", but they are attractive? The reason is facial expression, our faces constantly move and a camera stops that movement so the trick is to find that facial expression that defines your individual beauty. The more expressive you are, the more "looks" you have with your facial movements. Great portrait photographers train themselves to be able to "see" that special look. The rest of us have to take a lot of pictures, pray, and hope. Sounds like a good title for a book, and maybe a movie. You want to figure out your look? Maybe another blog or I will put in the book.
On a completely unrelated subject, if you will recall a prior blog on Frans Lanting and some photographers working with him on the coast, in particular Jason Bradley. Well Jason was just recognized as the "next generation" of potential greats by Outdoor Photographer Magazine. My congrads to Jason for this recognition. You may see him at one of the Hold The Eye Images workshops in the future.
