Thanks Pete - yep, did a full day with a number of locations and looks

The rest is still under wraps pending submission for publishing - but I could't resist posting something

Seems like I've been away for months!

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Gorgeous, and well captured. What a look...

 

[Brian Moore]

I thought you'd been away for months too, Chris. Nice shot.

Thanks Rob - and I asked nicely as well!

Thanks Brian - planning and organizing the model shoots takes an inordinate amount of time and energy, way more than any other type of photography I've undertaken.

It's limited the amount of 'normal' photography I've been able to do - that and work getting in the way.

A beautiful one Chris. Love the faded colouring and the way the image is split 50:50 and it's all topped off with a lovely semi serious expression from the model.

 

[Paul Lange]

I love the subtle colour on this Chris.

Thanks Tom - after reviewing the current post processing being used in magazines, I'm playing more with VSCO presets - I like the results, although it's somewhat ironic that we develop high image quality digital cameras, and then degrade the IQ to make them look like film!

I love the subtle colour on this Chris.

Thanks Paul
