mark_starr 0 Posted November 5, 2009 Lovely portrait- In looking at her eyes I can feel the intensity of her concentration - quite a powerful feeling you have captured there- thanks for sharing it-Mark Link to comment
gungajim 75 Posted November 5, 2009 I've recently been trying to develop an appreciation of soft focus portraits and find this one to my liking. GJ Link to comment
ricardovaste 0 Posted November 5, 2009 Thanks you both. My portraits are only ever family candids, so very personal to me... which makes it nice when someone notices them from a photographic POV :) Jim - glad you liked that. I've been experimenting, trying to get the balance between softness and sharpness with portraits. I like the balance i got here. It was a shallow DOF to star with, but I did softness in PS and then add a boost of contrast at the end. Thanks, Rich Link to comment
leecaudilljr 0 Posted November 6, 2009 Beautiful job. Even more stunning after reading that it wasn't a planned shot.It shows a caring softness that one can only get with an emotional attachment. Link to comment
