The last shot on a roll we blasted through in about 20 minutes as the

sun set quickly behind the trees. Its too bad I couldnt get more in

this light but by the time I had reloaded the moment was over.

Nice portrait, beautiful light. The original picture is certainly excellent. Cheers. Yves P. (http://imagesyves.net)

Hi Patrick,

 

Sorry, I spelt it with a capital. Is this good art or just treating your name spiritually?

 

On a more serious note, I like the values!

 

So balanced - art/entertainment - money - spiritual.

 

Couldn't be better according to my opinion also.

 

On this photo, I like it. Its what is called narrow lighting. As you probably know if you reverse the light with the darker,(light and darken the other side) it would be broad lighting.

 

Further, it would be interesting to see some photos of your paintings!

Art disciplines can learn from one another and much overlaps.

 

If you have an environmental inclination, you will probably go digital dslr. Processing chemicals are ongoing and bad.

 

If it is any interest to you, I owned 4 OM cameras at one point.

 

Cheers Peter

 

This one is a strong shot with great lighting on her face, nicely composed and balanced with the warm tones of her skin on the right and the cool blues on the left. The light and shadow defines her pretty face instead of detracting from it and the open space in the direction of her glance gives depth. A nicely done portrait, appearingly effortless.
