A few more random FA 77 shots.





Very nice, yet again ... and the "Smiley" was funny to see. J

Thanks guys! Great portrait full of character and texture Deimos.

FA31



A friend wanted some shots in front of this wall art. She showed up in a cute jersey and some cool looking torn jeans but insisted on changing into a plaid shirt and MC Hammer pants (she has a thing for plaid). I tried to make it work. At least she said I could pick the clothes next time. I'm still getting the hang of the off camera flash that came bundled with the K-3.



This is her signature Instagram snarl that she likes. I had a chain in the trunk that she wanted to use as a prop.

Thank you. I appreciate your kind words. I always try to take my time when it comes to selecting and editing the images that I feel will work best in monochrome. I also have to say that Silver Efex Pro 2 is a wonderful plugin and I highly recommend it.

I was wondering about that plugin for a while. Do you mind sharing your experience on how is it better than the regular tools available in lightroom?

Nice work guys!

With this shot, I either focused on the mountain or I made the mistake of assuming infinity focus would do the trick. Worked on it for awhile, still not satisfied considering the hopes I had for this one, but I like the light, so here it is. Check your focus points!
