Teagardenfoto from Barcelona, Spain
Is one of your best photos, for me. Perfect especially for the naturalness of the model, its position, the movement of his hand. The treatment of color is excellent and very hard for your work with the saturation. It is a perfect postcard autumn. Thanks for spending my portfolio.
I will close.
2 May 2009 9:10am
@Teagardenfoto: Thank you very much!
Uday from Fishers, United States
Very sweet portrait. Very nice pose and capture. However, is there too much light on the face?
3 May 2009 5:41pm
@Uday: Thank you! I love to hear critiques and suggestions - I appreciate it a lot! :) I played with contrast and saturation a lot for more "dramatic" look and I think I overdid it a little ;) The original photograph is very subtle
Ram from Bangalore, India
One for me please........... I have always liked your daughter's captures. She is too cute.
