Under bridges

Cruising the archives I found an old Oly e-3 pic that I had fun shooting even if I failed to understand the lighting concept. This was a test shot

[Michaelaw]

Yes well...It wasn't my idea!

nice "wildlife" shot there, Michaelaw; including the cougar this is a grand shot, however, i'd removed the coffee cup I like the composition and the whole theme, works very well.

Thanks Matt...This was a "case of beer" session, oh!, and also a box of 4x6 Canon photo paper. The lady (friend) wanted to give her BF a sexy series Though I didn't have a freakin idea how to go about it, I tried to draw from what I thought I knew. As a test shot, meaning that she was just goofing off while I checked the lighting, I wasn't too worried about the cup. Truth be told, I worried more about the glasses I think she voted this shot down as an inclusion in the sexy BF set. I'm going to email it to her also

You had to give her a case of beer?????

... I didn't have a freakin idea how to go about it, I tried to draw from what I thought I knew.

Well you drew pretty good ... her posture is damn nice ...

I am waiting with baited breath to see the rest of the set, you old tease ...

Thanks again Matt...if her posture was good, it was due to its spontaneity. Subsequent shots showed my lack of direction and vision along with hers. She vetoed 90% of the shoot as would I in her shoes. The biggest problem was, in my observation that she wanted to look 19 at 58! Her BF is way younger. I'll dig around at some point , see if I can locate any of the finals and post them

I am assuming that maxi is much easier to work with?

I'd love to see the finals. I didn't leave a comment when I first saw it because it just looked so different from your work now. I wondered if you were trolling under bridges looking for hookers.

the sneakers and coffee add a weird little twist to the shot.
