    She doesn't like here photo taken so I only had one chance to steal this, just lifted the camera out of my lap and bam, shot taken and camera put away. I got some stern words but it was too late, I had the shot. Can't decide if I like the color or BW better. Most people like color images so I'll post that one and link to the other.


    (Edit: The old color one has been deleted from Flickr now so here is the BW to fill the gap)

    Sometimes you have to steal those shots! I like the composition and lighting a lot. As between the two, I prefer the B&W version. Not sure if it was intentional, but the white balance is off on the color version and it pushes too green for me. Look at the center of her neck - that appears unnatural to me on my monitor.

    I hadn't noticed that, you're right, it's in the hairline too. Yes it was intentional, I tried to give it an 80's look, or maybe the 60's, I don't know, "retro" is the word I'm looking for. It didn't look too bad on a dark gray background in LR but it does look a bit garish here. Thanks for the feedback.


    Original with no color adjustment:

    BW is my favorite too. Cheers for the feedback [B]

    @William - Have you ever tried "Gavin's Old Polaroid" preset? It can be a very good starting point if you are looking for a bit of retro look []

    Thanks Takahiro, I like this better. Here is the result with no further adjustment (just Gavin's preset on its own) cheers.






    (My poor wife, she was just trying to enjoy a coffee on one of our few days together without the kids). Photographers wives, they do put up with a lot!
