The Green Dress

I took these pictures yesterday on the Rims. I wanted to have a contrasting setting with the green dress. I took these at about 7:30 right when the sun was setting and the light was amazing. What I found to be the hardest part was I only had about 5 minutes of really good sunlight.

I cropped it towards the bottom of the photo

but I had a hard time with it because I didn't know

How much of the grass to leave on the bottom

before it was just obnoxious. I wanted the main

focus to be on her hair and the dress rather than

her face.

For this one I was looking for more of

a focus on the beauty of the human body

and how poses change so much in a picture.

I never got the chance to edit this one yet

but the trees in the background and the

shadow in the right corner are very distracting

to the essence of the picture.

I tried playing with shadows and sun

light and trying to get both to work together

in her favor. I found out that shadows are very

hard to work with when trying to compliment

a figure.

My main focus on this photo was the dress.

I made the green more brilliant than the other colors

in the picture so that the eye is drawn to that

from the start and then moves around to the

rest of the picture.
