Ballerina Dreamer
Uploaded: May 13, 2008
To get the soft filter effect, I used chapstick on a small piece of plexi-glass and placed it in front of the camera. The dark walls gave a natural vignette and the bright white is a window. To soften the image further I placed sheer fabric in front of the window and white sheer fabric on the window bench. I had my daughter wear her most "fluffy" tutu to soften even more. Of course, I could have done all of this in photoshop, but I planned to challenge myself to see if I could create the effect with tools from around the house. Editing include conversion from RAW and reduce noise only, (and re-size).

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
