AUGUST NSS News photo

Postby innermostphoto » Aug 17, 2011 8:18 pm

If you want to see a great photo look on the INSIDE cover of this months NSS News by Alan Cressler in Jess Elliott Cave. THAT is an award winner !!! Absolutely incredible! I shot that very same spot about two years prior but didn't shoot it like that. Salon judges take note of what a great quality photo looks like.

Agreed! That photo really blew me away. I'd love to find out more about how the model was lit with apparently very little spill. :kewl:

Agreed! :kewl: Outstanding! The photo stopped me in my tracks (well, my half-paying attention page-turning) and I couldn't help but study it for quite a while.

It makes me feel like I am looking out through the mouth of great white shark.

This is my image of the same place shot some two years previous. It is at a leftward angle than that of Alan's and I don't recall any water in the pool on that day. While I think this is a good shot it is not the exemplary photo of Alan's.

interestingly,

When I saw the photo I thought *bleck* another photoshop painting pretending to be a photo. It looked very pixilated and fake. Maybe that was just an effect of the water.
I'm not scared of the dark, it's the things IN the dark that make me nervous. :)
