The Smile

Ocean Beach, ( San Diego) CA

March 26: Self Portrait Saturday



Nine of us had a great time on a warm sunny day getting various images of Ocean Beach as part of our photo club shoot. I met some neat folks, learned some things about photography, and enjoyed shooting in the sun.

Why did I pick this shot to be my PaD? Why not ... combining beauty with a SP is always seductive. Note Gary Winters in the reflection coaching me on the shot! ;-)

Why B&W sepia? Because Audra wanted to see what a B&W photo out of my 20D and then processed in Photoshop would look like.

This is really cool, Robin. I saw something like it from Bandito recently too. I am going to have to try it.

I think it is very innovative to utilize a pretty young lady as framing material for your SP Robin! LOL

It looks more to me like you are coaching someone else in the shot . . but it IS a very cool shot and she has great smile =]
