Description
Due to all of your inspirational support from my last uploaded photo, I've decided to share with you another image from that same session of running back and forth after setting the timer. Here, I experimented a bit with the Hue/Saturation in Photoshop and discovered that I prefer the black & white version of this particular photo to the color version which, to me, looked a bit off. Removing the color seemed to balance things out quite nicely. This is a far darker image than the first one, literally and in spirit, but I believe it portrays the more profound sentiment of hope. Please share with me your thoughts, advice, comments...either here, PM, or e-mail; they make such a big difference to me. Thank you again, in advance. :) (Taken August 1, 2005)

You do make the difference - wonderful photo - this one and the last one :) I am glad you shared this too
beautiful
Simply fantastic like this!!!!!
wonderful composition and lighting...you did well posing also. Definitly suggests a dark mood. well done
Ive seen the last one too - and I have to say it hat more style... Even if its too much light in the last one - it has the fairy-tale-look, yes. This one here is just a bit bland imho... But I like the idea, not that bad for your first steps in postworking... And by the way... your hands seem to be extraordinary beautiful... :-)
This is very pleasing portrait to view, the lighting is excellent and she glows with the feeling of calmness not a dark mood, wonderful work:):):):):)
when it comes of portraits, my preference is for B/W, too - the higher contrast that is found in tones of gray is far more beautiful than what you can find in the color version; the color version has its own perfume and only you can decide whether you post or print a photo in B/W or color! your portrait is very well executed! all my appreciations! ~mihai~
The look on her face speaks volumes!
Superb monochrome composition; much more dramatic then yesterdays' colour comp... you're on the right track young lady :-). Well done and keep them coming!
very beautifully done..love the clothing
great compo, the light and the model, of course
Excellent composition ! Great POV ! Well done, Stefanie ! :~)
For self portraits, this is in really good taste and style.Lighting seems from natural and where it comes from, is well seen on the face and clothes.Welcome Stefanie
Wonderful portrait!
your expression makes me think... what's up there... & the lighting looks great in the b&w with the twinkle caught in your eye... :]
glad to have found your gallery ;-) (need some time check, though...)
