Portrait in the streets of Nice using natural light only :)
Just to share a portrait I shot in the old town of Nice, France, last summer.
No flash used, natural light only.

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

That's a pretty edit.
Great shot. Perfect lighting. Like it a lot.
Love the muted tones, and all round a really nice shot. The only thing I would say that I find myself repeating over and over again is about the processing. While it’s been done very well it’s, for my taste, just a bit too much. Just because we can smooth skin to within an inch of its life......do we have to?
Yes, it's clearly over the top, I agree :)
But here is the problem : as a professional photographer, I have to deliver to the clients what they want...
And 80% of the time, they want "Instagram fashionable unrealistic photos"...
That's because people don't want to face reality, look at how many people are having "plastic" surgery, liposuction, etc.
I agree ! And this "issue" is very common where I live (South of France... Nice, Monaco, Cannes, etc...).
We sometimes watch a reality show called scarred, it talks about cosmetic surgery gone wrong, one case of a woman who wanted to look like Angelina Jolie, the results were horrific.
Hi Alex, Admiring the subtle midtone PP. Vision moved to the subject irrespective of a little busy background. Liked the concept of colour tone chosen. Thanks.
