Wow, a post every day. This new leaf is turning pret-ty good. Thanks for all your lovely welcome back comments - much appreciated.
I really love this photo. I took it of G last week in Bath and I think of it as my "fashion photograph" (I should be so lucky)... slightly Burberry with a twist. My Photoshop skills don't quite extend to removing the figure to the right. It's the light that makes it for me; soft, late afternoon, low in the sky. Photography is all about the light - look for the light and there's your photo. I've used Lightroom a little to recover some of the highlights, but I like the bleached, flare look - a big trend in fashion photography at the moment, which means it will soon be overdone and killed.
Long live the flare.
That's too true. Something new and exciting (or not necessarily new but redone) comes out then everyone jumps on the bandwagon and beats it to death until something fresh comes out again. :) How sad but such is life.
