Such a lovely photo! Definitely one of my favourites in your portfolio. By the way,thanks heaps for checking out my images, and for your feedback and word of advice. I'm looking forward to follow it next time I go out to shoot.
michelle ... this is absolutely fantastic .. its like a dream with a japanese overtone .. beautiful .. i've been looking at my old photos from 2004 .. that's when i got my first digital camera .. a kodak DX6490 .. but they're all on cd so its slow going .. i'm deleting most of them but copying the keepers onto my harddrive .. there arent many keepers .. !!
OH I like this. It has the feel of a faded old photo. I think it's beautiful.
Might be fun to do a conversion to BW and play with dodge, burn, levels, and curves to really pop out the contrasts. It would be a complete opposite to this delicious version. Editing is so fun.
