@The Photodiarist- that is what attracted me to her in the first place: the mustard coat and then the little pop of olive green on her arm. Re the aperture- um, I find it really difficult to shoot now ,at say, anything above f2.8. I really only go above if we are on holidays. I should be more adventurous though.
@lucylu- thank you Lucy :)) I love the colours as well (and how about that brick behind her?! Love that it screams London!)
This is one of my faves because of the great color combination. Also, I love love love your wide open aperture.

This is probably one of your best portraits so far: the wide aperture and the perfectly split background on the first picture work wonders.
ReplyDeleteThis is actually quite typical of Renaissance painters. The colour combination of green & mustard work well too - thanks for photographing it for us.
