Default The Senior

This is also one of my favorites. It was also a TTD in DT Houston.

The original color of the dress was turquoise. Kinda of did not go with her skin tone too much. It made her skin just look darker. So i decided to play around a lttle bit in photosop. Here is what i ended up with.

It is hard to comment on the dress since I have not seen the original, but Ill comment on the photo.

I like the vertical lines in the photo and the incorporation of the architecture. Also, the strips of her dress continue this theme and make this photo more interesting. It is also cropped well. Overall the photo seems soft on my monitor.

Thanks

Photo has a soft glamour effect applied to it. So it is essentially meant to be a bit glowish.

But yes, i have to say that i saw her standing there, and i asked her to please wait while i composed the frame, and shot the picture. I think it was pretty good. And yes, it flows with everything else in the picture. Such a classic shot, but with a twist. hehe..
