althetics


well, lets start from the top. i took a plain background and put blue paper over the strobes so that they flashed and created that bright blue effect. i sprayed her down in some of the pictures, and also sprayed down the basketball so that she looked intense. all diffestent sports and angels. edited by cleaning her up and then working on the background. and adding translucent images and text to match each pic. i have a lot of levels work and dodging and burning on each image. (twitch also remember i had to show you all my images becaue they were raw so i couldnt use the files to make a contact sheet!) thank you

Very nice. Nice concept, and for the most part, very nice execution. Be careful with the backgrounds getting blown out- too much light on them. The white blown out areas, such as in the fourth one down, can be a real distraction. Remember that the eye wants to go to what is lightest and brightest and if that area is not the subject, than the eye is drawn away.

Nice editing work. watch your focus though, on a couple it looks like the focus was off a little, either a little in front or a little behind the eyes.
As I said though, as a whole, fantastic job. Keep experimenting with the lights, you are doing some great stuff with them!
