Blowin' in the Wind

Your expert opions are greatly appreciated - thanks :)

I'm not an expert but this is a good capture. Congrats!

 

 

 

 

 

The wind as given a live to this picture.

The angle, hair movement, powder blue sky, lighting and the skill of the photographer all come together to make a fine image. Congrats.

Thank you for your kind words and ratings. It's always good to have feedback and, in the case of this particular photo, positive reinforcement. Each of you has an obvious gift for photography. I appreciate your taking time to put into words what makes the photo work and hopefully can use this knowledge to repeat the experience. Cheers -

This shot has the magic!

 

 

I appreciate your stopping by recently. Thanks.

 

 

Best,

Once, somebody told me that it's not good to catch people faces from downside, but here it works pretty good. I adore it for it's dynamic form; her hair makes some kind of a hmm...I can't find word...all in all amazing portrait of her, really nice shot!

 

Greetings from Damian 8-)

The answer my friend is: "genetics" ;-)

By the bye Damian, if you blow your nose upfront, there is no problem ;-)

Thank you for your comment and rating :=))

Thanks for your comment - yes, it's those genes. Her mother is just as beautiful. I'm not sure about your comment to Damian - is that English? :)

Nope, (it is now) it's southern redneck... never mind.. I was refering to the shot from below ;-)

 

I would have cut the portrait like this.. (with your permission ofcause, he spoke humbled)

beautiful portrait. i'd try a different cut. less sky.

Thanks for your comment. Frits had the same suggestion (see his attached crop.) I agree - much improved. Thanks, Frits. Cheers

Ohw.. now I get it.. (takes some days to sinck in ya know) My response to Damien was refering to the fact he had heard that one never shoots a "subject" from below. But that's my favoutite position (ahem). Probably just because they sayed you should not. But it works great.

A little slow, but glad you got there :) My philosophy is that rules are meant to be broken (as long as no one gets hurt) and that one should shoot a subject however one wants to, having looked into the viewfinder and saying to oneself "YES - this is IT!" Cheers -

Yep... "slow" is sometimes my middle name.
Just realized I just love the: "(as long as no one gets hurt)" remark. ;-)

I love the from below angle. Warm regards.

Kids rule!

 

Great shot, pretty girl.

 

Thanks for your visit and for having an open mind to "breaking the rules." That's what they're there for :)

I think this is really a great shot because it's unconventional; I agree rules are made to be broken sometimes (and often times when it comes to photography). I love the angle and how you have captured her hair blowing into all that blue sky. Lovely image! We learn by pushing the boundaries and experimenting. Thank you for sharing (and breaking the rules)! :)
