Wanda Water Goddess3 03_06_10.jpg

Here is another shot by request left in color. Yesterday we got a little lucky with the light because we had some high thin clouds to soften up the shadows a little. Still mid-day isn't the best time to shoot. Still our temps in the mornings are in the 20s but by noon it had warmed to the upper 40s.

I wish this wasn't in such a public place. I prefer Mother Nature without so much cover. We had at least one person drive by and turn around twice watching us. Those drapes Wanda fashioned into a toga are pretty sheer and, well, like a hospital gown, she was a bit exposed in the back. She is mooning the road.

In a few weeks that little creek will be a rushing torrent and those steps will be completely under water for the rest of the year.

Here is a composite of the location you can click on if you were wondering what we had to work with.

Bill;
You may want to consider a piece of software called "Vertus" to extract your model from an image and place her into the setting that you choose. I have used it a few times and like the way it works.
