Challenge: Something New III (Advanced Editing IV*)
Camera: Pentax *ist DL
Lens: Sigma 18-50mm f/3.5-5.6 DC for Pentax Digital AF
Location: Our Loungeroom
Date: Apr 15, 2006
Galleries: Portraiture, Studio
Date Uploaded: Apr 15, 2006

 Yes - same shoot as the entry for colour studio portraiture which I lament doing but Jak came running over to me with his car, threw himself into my lap at the precise time the camera was set to go off. So a spontaneous moment was too good to resist. As fate would have it, the flash failed to go off so the only lighting was window lighting which I think really added to the shot.

Post: Neat ninja, USM, crop, rotate horizontally (to make it appear different to the colour portrait entry), had to do heaps of colour correction due to the window light coming through the cream curtain in our loungeroom, levels, curves,hue/saturation, resize, save for web

Very lovely portrait of two lovely people. Like the use of the negative, bright space to the right, like the angle/placement of the subjects in the frame.

Edit: Since GIS_boy is in "Old", this must be Nic... or...or... it could be that stalker guy!! :-)

Reminds me of the photos they take at a stand in my local shopping area - nice expressions though and inspiring composition.
