I do not shoot portraits very often, I always felt like it was not my thing. All that changed somehow when someone lent me their 85mm. It was way more comfortable having a distance of a few meters between the subject and me, and I generally loved the compression I got from that distance.
In post, I did frequency separation and dodge&burn, two techniques I have never really tried before.
In the end, I am pretty satisfied with the result. What do you think?
I have 16 TB worth of photographs that need to be cleared out.
I have been sorting through my external SSDs, getting rid of all the photographs I should have got rid of on the day I uploaded them.
I have been working through all my SSD exts, which are filled with thousands of photographs, most of which are dross and need to be deleted.
This is not a good shot in the way we ould normally think of but I at least the got the eye dead sharp of this 5-7 day old Wood Pigeon which we have done our best to protect both parents.
That haunting mental image of a woman you glanced at while walking past a Paris cafe...
