Description Went down to another waterfront setting today, and the weather was again perfect.

This is one of my faves from the shoot.

Models: Nicola and Max, my sister and nephew

technical:

I again challenged myself with just a tripod and my Olympus Camedia C-350 Zoom.

No filters, and the only post-processing was a little levels work, to make the silhouettes really black. Sky unaltered

Well she did really like it, hehe. I took tons of these, and this one had the best shape that emphasised that sense of leadership. She's oredered the print form me

Well thank you very much. I actually thought the same. I don't mean to blow my own horn or anything, but I really thought so. You should let ^hesitation know

i like the sharpness of the picture and the moment you captured. i just don't like that spotlight between the figures very much.. but i still love the whole picture!

I was torn by that light shining through, but in the end I decided I liked it. Obviously not everyone is going to agree with everything, but I'm very appreciative of your comments

I know, I can;t believe the brilliant weather this weekend. It's surely going to mean wind and rain for the next 6 months.

Thanks very muchly Amanada.

I wish things were getting easier. They had eased up a bit, but now they'refull on again. I've got coursework coming out of my ears. I'm not sure when things will ease up. Going to France next week really isn't a good idea in this situation.
