Description

Sophie's costume was already mostly blue, so I opted to apply tinting to this image of her, on a bridge with buildings of the Grand Canal beyond. PG101 "Moody Blues" Theme Winner

Nikki McDonald level-classic April 15, 2017

Absolutely beautiful - the costume, mask, and model are, of course, magnificent, and the subtle hint of Old World Italy in the background tinted the same color is very special. Great job. #11583597

Bob Cournoyer level-classic April 15, 2017

Yup!
Happy Theme Day #11583619

I thoroughly enjoy connecting with the "real" person behind the mask and costume in this closeup image, Chris. #11583641

Linda Estes level-classic April 15, 2017

Excellent clarity and detail. The blue tint was an excellent treatment for this photo. #11583649

Wonderful coordinated blues, Chris, with terrific subtle contrasts of hue and texture between foreground and background. Excellent. #11583892

Thank you very much, Martha! #11583930

Terry A. Stoa April 16, 2017

Very nice - with tons of detail. I think the eyes make this special - with them looking hard left right at your camera. #11583949

Chris Budny level-deluxe April 16, 2017

Thank you, Terry! Sophie certainly made it easier, making eye contact with everyone in our workshop, during each shoot, over several poses, etc. #11584015

Bob Cournoyer level-classic April 17, 2017
