Posted by Rahul (Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia) on 3 July 2007 in People & Portraits and Portfolio.
This is another shot from the KL motor show in the indoor stadium. Was shot in dark conditions with very little light. SB600 again saved my day.
Ohhh i did a little it of softening on this shot to remove that sweat and makeup peel. LOL!!!
I hope you guys will like this one, too close though. :)

@priya: Thanks Priya, probably the herd of photographers got her worried lol!!!! I did my job from a distance though. ;-)
Sweat and make up peel!! LOL - you just made it sound unglamourous! But nice softening touch to bring out the "glow"

@Celialee: Haha... not really, she looked pretty even with all that mess. I just did a little clean-up. ;-)
yeah, hahah I agree with my sis on the unglamourous part. ;)
But this shot is beautifully taken. The SB600 made the lighting look natural. Nice upclose portrait! good work rahul!

@Kheoh Yee Wei: Thanks Bro, i did try converting to B&W but still prefered the color version. :-)

@Mike Cash: Thanks Mike. :)
I think it's just righ! Not too close and the softening is perfect.

@Beckie: Thanks Beckie, great to see you back pal. :)
She is lovely. I might have tried to get the eyes a little sharper. If they were softened with the overall photo I would have removed the softness from the eyes. But it's lovely just the same.

@Laurie: Thanks Laurie, a bit sharper eyes would have been better. Agree with u pal. :)
I like how she is framed. Great PS work as well - really gave it a dreamy feel.
3 Jul 2007 10:00am
@Daniel & Jessica: Thanks pal, yes it was kinda dreamy, i was dreaming of her LOL!!!!!
Now, this is an absolutely georgous portrait, the light, the softness, the hair, and the girls expression are all wonderful :)
