Description
My friend Tara, at one of my favorite bars in Prague. I wanted to capture the mood of the place and also render a dark, dream-like quality that captures a bit of Prague's paradoxical nature. It can be a happy/brooding city at precisely the same moment. Few places can pull that off and I hope this picture does some justice to both subjects, Tara AND Prague. Post work was done in Photoshop...just to make it dreamy and fuzzy.

wonderfully done!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lovely moody shot:)
EXCELLENT CAPTURE !!!!!
Fantastic colors and mood. Excellently done!
Great mood and lighting!Excellent work!!
Superb capture and great post work! I think you've certainly captured a very sheik,enticing mood. The blurr and vagueness of it, is superb, whilst still being clear enough to depict a particular atmosphere. I like what you've said as well with Prague being a place of paradox... seems rather enchanting, just from your words. Tara's makeup is beautiful, and gotta love the stunning jet black hair. Wonderful work!
the use of light really sets a wonderful mix of moods you pulled it off...very well done...
very beautifully done image! Bravo!!!
Oh! it does justice to both, Chip! A superb image with an incredible mood!! Tara is very beautiful as is your shot of her. Stunning postwork to achieve the dreamy/fuzzy feeling so well. Your words are a joy to read. I can feel your love of Prague in them.. Happy night for you and HUGS. Diane.
Moody and beautifully done!
I think you did capture the mood quite well. She is enveloped and part of the darkness, yet slices of color and light add life. Very nice. Happy AND brooding, hmmmmmm. ;']
fantastic mood
This should be a tutorial of quality over quantity. By minimizing the atmosphere, you have brought the surreal to life. Excellent work! ***** ")
I couldn't agree with Savage Dragon any more: Quality! The simplicity and lighting carry such intensity, and the color gives just the right mix of the moods you were looking for. This is by far one of the best I've seen in a very long time!
