Filmgirl, this is my favourite portrait. I think it meets all your criteria? Although it was not posed and some may say it is a snapshot, I felt a certain connection with her that I believe made the shots that afternoon. Her eyes say it all.....

Fimgirl to Filmgirl - love it. For someone so devoted to film I never saw this connection!

For someone who's guidance of the production of your superb Halloween images completely changed my perception of photography and post processing, you sure don't need my opinion.

As it is, I like the shot very much.

Quite nice shots Sunshine but where's the grain? Tri-X in 35mm and no grain? Shame on you biggrin.png

Seriously, looks as though maybe you went for the noise(grain) removal which is a shame really as the grain is the essence of film. (IMHO)

btw, why are the images carrying the _IMG Canon designation?

^^^ FG...Playing around with grain removal and removed waaaaay too much.

Not really happy with it, then again I didn't spend a heap of time perfecting

amounts of grain for each try. Now spending time sorting out the X5's settings

so when Tri-X is used the machine doesn't increase the grain..or seem to.

Designation came from a mass rename of data as there was Can, Nik & Leica

data scattered throughout the images I was working on then renamed everything

starting with Can images.....all the rest had Can on them too. Won't let that happen

again. I use a mass rename bit of sw and it copies everything from the first file in

the queue.

More px will come after the LIMA gig...they'll be better...hopefully.

^^^ PE...That is a very valid question you just raised.

Actually from my POV the shot is a 3/4 under-side boob

shot! Using todays terminology in IMO. Nicely done

too I must say. And to me shows nothing that in anyway

can be misconstrued as "offensive". One sees more

on any Thai TV entertainment programme. True?!

Whether or not it is going to be an issue depends on the

Culture Ministry and Yupha Thaweewattanakijborworn,

whoever, whatever that puritanical person is...director or

not.

Anyway...for the threads here, the pic is acceptable but

for an us vs "them"...well...better safe than sorry as the

gov't seems to be on a website shutting down binge also.

Odd ...sideboobies were never mentioned though!!!!

Hmmmmm...hard to make a call.

Perhaps we should get Mod Oilinki to comment.

^^Good.

You know I can never leave the sharpness and clarity sliders alone and always push them way high. Portraits ain't my thing.
