I like it a lot. To nitpick, you could clone out the sticky part of the tree on the left, and the power lines and power poles on the right. Very nice.

Nice job of the lighting and great location.

I think her placement within the frame could have been strengthened if she was not standing but rather seated in a cool antique chair or just crouching down. So that her head was positioned so that it fell within the bridge opening at the other end. Almost like a tunnel vision. Then you would have all those leading lines going toward her. As it is right now, all those beams and girders converging on and around her head, makes the composition a little messy there.

I love this shot. It is extremely well done. Did you have a grid on the light? I was wondering how you were able to get the correct exposure on the background and still sync to the flash. I also would be interested in knowing how you eliminated the shadow from the flash. I have been playing with this same type shot but not able to achieve this level of perfection.

Thanks,
John

Interesting, this is true... I can see it.... and I agree that would create some interesting lines for sure

thanks so much, no grid.... but LOTS of light... everything's real, the sun flare, clouds, etc... I meter for the background first, and then do what is necessary to get enough light on subject....

I didn't think it was a composite at all. The dress resting on the wood bridge ramps is too perfectly molded to the line of the board to be a composite. The model is below the board.

Bill< I see no need to confirm that this was as photographed to others! It is your shot and there are too many tangables that make the image an original.
She is a beauty...image, location, model,scene...Great work!

I also see the persons point about her standing versus seated but personally this is excellant and his suggestion, a great one, is for another time!

Who cares if it is or isn't, or HDR or not HDR. It's a shame the "photographers" can't just enjoy an excellent image without getting in to specifics of how it was captured or processed. The end result is what matters, and this end is awesome. Love it.


My comment on whether it was a composite or not was for me to help learn how the photo was constructed. When I see something I like and can't determine how it was done I'd like to know.

Nice one, I love the perspective, and the dramatic sky. I like a lot the flare and the rim light on the hairs, nice touch

Let me guess, Canon, right?


...I am currently shooting Nikon, but I got a tell ya, when perusing FM, most shots that really blow me are shot with Canon.

Not that the camera has anything to do with it

Nice job, regardless

Thanks Yes, Canon here, but honestly the only real reason I like Canon, is I like the lens lineup better...

Bill: Beautiful picture. I went to your web site and was amazed at the quality of your work. Both the photo (composition, lighting, focus) and the post are extraordinary. I liked your Facebook page because I'm anxious to follow your work.
