Description

When I met this Mom, she reminded me of a little of Angelina Jolie. This image is comprised of 3 different pieces. The wings were a purchased and licensed stock photo, the dramatic sky was taken on one of our many rainy days this winter and the model and field are a single photo. There is a B&W grunge overlay and color manipulation done to the background to accentuate the colors in the wings.

Exif: F Number: 4, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/50 seconds, Flash: did not fire, compulsory flash mode, ISO: 125, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 51.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 5D Mark III

Fantastic presentation and outstanding composite and post processing work, Paula...not your usual "Mom" portrait, for sure - I bet she just loved being portrayed as this iconic movie star! Congrats on your excellent Finalist! #11467804
