24.5.12 Chris Spracklen

Red, white and blue, Priego de Cordoba

Priego de Córdoba, Spain

Debo confesar que la bella dama no estaba en este cuadro cuando lo llevé!
La tomé de un disco llamado "Actitudes del modelo", que está lleno de fotos
de personas con máscaras confeccionadas para su uso en Photoshop.
Estoy cargando esta imagen por sobre todo para ver si el amigo que se fue a España
con los anillos de mí hasta me preguntan dónde me las arreglé para tomar esta foto! : o)
Técnicamente era un ejercicio bastante difícil, sobre todo porque tuve que crear la sombra de la señora de mí mismo!

A wonderful scene the white structure with the grand entrance is a work of art.
Composition superb and plumb and the lady in Red is lovely as she gracefully looks toward you for the image of the day.
The light is magical and she is absolutely beautiful .
