Challenge: Female Portrait (Basic Editing)
Camera: Canon EOS-5D
Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM
Location: Central Park, NYC
Date: May 25, 2008
Date Uploaded: May 26, 2008

 I don't own the 70-200, but I sure wish I did. I rented this lense for a gig I had and got to keep it over the holiday weekend. I had rented it previously, and was never very impressed. I'll tell you what, put that monster on the 5D and it was love at first shot.
This is one of my best friends, Lesley. We had spent ALL day in the sun in Central Park on Sunday. We were tired, relaxed and happy and I think this shot shows all of those things.

Very nice portrait. The face angled slightly away, the head tilt, the uneven shoulders...love it. Good luck!

This is a wonderful, seemingly casual & unplanned portait. Very genuine and natural looking. I might like to see the right cropped in to her shoulder, but then again, I might not! :-) 8
