Gypsy Girl
Posted by AF PhotoDesign (Southern California, United States) on 27 April 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.
A young gypsy girl poses at the Renaissance Faire. Always shoot in the shade, the umbrella helps. Thank you for being so cooperative, Irwindale, Ca.

Really great shot. I like the eye contact with the camera.

Beautiful portrait. The post processing on the eyes is a bit overdone for my taste (you might not agree).

Thank you for your kinds comments, everyone. No I did not edit the eyes in this image. It was shot with out flash, but reflections were pickup from the area. I usually only color correct slightly, resize, USM, in PS CS3 & Nik NX.

Haha, I'm actually featuring Gypsy shots from the Irwindale Fair right now and I hadn't even seen your blog, (puts mine to shame really!). Very nice portrait, looks like it was done in a studio!

I love how you captured her "attitude." The umbrella is wonderful.
