[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Hi, there,
Hopefully, this time, it's in compliance with rules.
A portrait I like and I'd like to share with you, randomers and friends.
***Once upon there was a girl like the curious one looking at the photographer. Nowadays, there's a lady and another girl:) That's life. Meet it with a smile.
Enjoy it!
Have a glorious WE, wherever you are.
Hugs:)
Valerka:)

Bonjour Valeria
Une belle réussite ce N&B.L'image pose beaucoup de questions sur la pensée des sujets photographiés avec un bon rendu des valeurs.
Bonne fin de journée.
Amicalement

Valeria...
You represent a high class of good pair of eyes...

You know what...
You know when...
You know how...

And then...?

Then comes that PP improvement and that's where the problems (sometimes) - occur...
This is one one those occurences...
An extraordinary well composed scene turned weird by this obviously visible PP job...(???)

Was there any reason in the first place to apply such amount of filters, diffusers and masks to the raw photo...?
Well, I don't know... I haven't seen the original...
What I see, is that huge PP beautifier - like a bad make up artistry...

But the scene... The scene...!!!
Priceless...

...............

Well as a concept this shot is meaningful......present to future....present right on the screen and the future just emerging from behind.
Then only the future needs to be blurred and not the present, but if the present is blurred........then hopes are there that the future would shine.
Agreed, that B&W was the best choice , but too much contrast has reduced the beauty .
Your notes are more powerful then the shot.

Take Care next time,

Rajeev

Dear Valeria,

Technical smiles do not last.. and here, the reality is the supreme..
Good portrayal.
Age, skin, and may things transform.. and here that is visible..

ENJOY !!
