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

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. #11583597Bob Cournoyer April 15, 2017

I thoroughly enjoy connecting with the "real" person behind the mask and costume in this closeup image, Chris. #11583641Linda Estes April 15, 2017
Excellent clarity and detail. The blue tint was an excellent treatment for this photo. #11583649Louise Wolbers April 15, 2017
Lovely Chris. Like how you blended then background too. #11583725Chris Budny April 16, 2017
Thank you, everyone! Happy Easter! #11583819Martha R. Mazon April 16, 2017
Wonderful coordinated blues, Chris, with terrific subtle contrasts of hue and texture between foreground and background. Excellent. #11583892Chris Budny April 16, 2017
Thank you very much, Martha! #11583930Terry 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. #11583949Chris Budny 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. #11584015Bob Cournoyer April 17, 2017
Congrats, Chris, on your jumps right off the page theme win... :-) #11584125Michele Peterson April 17, 2017
