July 8, 2005: Cherry Red

Windsor, ON, Canada

Sharon and I returned to the studio today
To shoot an idea that Sharon came up with
While eating cherries last night
After 3 hours of post-processing, I finally have the image that was floating around my brain.

Update: In my November PAD is another image shot on the same day, processed similarly but better, and more vibrant. Click the thumbnail below to view it.

Canon EOS 20D ,Tamron SP AF 90mm f/2.8
1/125s f/8.0 at 90mm iso100 with Alien Bees, softbox and gold reflector for fill full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Good one Ray. This is one of two favourites in this gallery. The thing I least like is the obviousness of the title, even though it works as a play on words. The composition and treatment are excellent, although I'd prefer to see the eyebrows dark like the eyelashes rather than white to give a high key effect rather than a painted face effect. John

Ray that's a great image. Would love to hear how you pp'd this to get that effect. Voted.
