Portrait # 1
Category: People
Woman
I love taking photos of people. I try to capture a moment in the photo, A true feeling, not a plastic smile. I say this woman sitting and taking in the life around her – and took the shot. Black and white portraits are something I really enjoy. I have here the original photo in color and this final version. Do you agree with me that the BW has more magic in it?
I have here also the original photo, color crop, and first version in BW…what speaks to you the most, please let me know.

I have no idea who this lady is, but as she sat in the cafe, she got some attention, and people wanted to have selfies with her, so I thought I’d take few photos of her also.

This photo with its soft light coming throught the trees, the girls walking on the side of the road, it just spell summer to me. Do you agree with me?
