02/15/10 - August 2007 Viewers' Choice (Memorability: High (score: 0.712 ) Pop:3.512)

Month #40 - Retrospective of Daily Photos posted from 5/04 to 12/09 (most viewers for the month)

August 2007 - Not my typical image. Here, in 8/07, I was experimenting with post processing - developing a pp that I termed "Cropping with Light". The fact this image is the month's viewers' choice is surprising. It received 10X the number of views as the runner-up. Something strange here - probably got linked to from some outside source for who knows what reason. Here's what I wrote when posting this in 8/07 (follow the link in the 8/28/07 writeup for a step-by-step cropping with light example) -

8/28/07 - Don't Take My Picture

I was hoping for an informal portraiture type of image. I have been experimenting with some techniques for altering portraits to provide a pleasing final effect. You can see a sample here - http://www.pbase.com/ed_k/cropping_with_light - especially the image labeled Side-by-Side. I didn't get the shot that I was hoping for today. I will continue to work with the model and try to get cooperation ;>}
