Hi dear Srna,
Thanks for your nice comment. Not a veteran but still a starter, to my opinion.
I now know better what I have to learn and what's there to improve, after 5 modelshoots.
But I enjoy being busy with portraits and trying to learn, each day. So I think in the end (1 or 2 years) I will succeed to shoot more interesting (street)portraits.
Warm greetz,
Albert

Hi Mohamed,
The light on her face is from the Nikon SB80DX flash-unit. I corrected the standard computer values a little bit, to get the desired light.
Because I got this unit a few months ago, I stille have to learn a lot about all these possibilities by this computer-combination.
Friendly greetz,
Albert

Hi Marta,
Stella lives in Italy, but wwas born in Nigeria. She is now back to Nigeria to visit her daughter of 8 years. I think she had I kind of hard life till 2 years ago. What you can not see in my photos is that she has some severe scarves of wounds caused by burning (?). One of her hands is much damaged by this. She also had simular scarves at the upper part of one of her breasts.
Because I treated her photos with photoshop and due to the crop I chose, you don't see it in the photos I published.
Stella liked the original shots. I think she never had this kind of photos, but only the usual unsharp portraits with disturbing background like we all have.
These shots, after working on them with PS she never saw. So they will be a nice presentwhen she finds them in Italy, after her return from Nigeria.
Friendly greetz,
Albert

Hi dear Marta,
I don't mind what you did. I like your approach of B&W. Great, Stella prefers some B&W prints. So I'll show her your approach when she is back from Nigeria. I am also busy translation her best portraits to B&W versions, as to find as a surprise when she arrives in Italy.
Warm greetz,
Albert
