This is beautiful, Srini... I'd put that one at the front of my portfolio. Magnificent use and control of a difficult light.

Thanks Brad, The ISO was really up at 1600 and I am shooting more with available light now-a-days... Srini RR

Srini.
Did you do much post processing on this shot.
It doesn't matter, except I always like to know if there are some "secrets" to such a great picture, other than a good eye, and capable talent.

[srini]

Thanks Guys for all the wonderful comments..
Regarding post-processing not much really, I shot it RAW(wish I had been doing it all the time), used the CS2 Raw converter and adjusted my exposure there. Some USM and resize for the web with the frame. I used a 85mm 1.2L, I am sure thats where the secret lies..

So, that's the new toy you been trying to tell me.... I can't believe you really got it.... Christmas comes early, my friend Go prime! we gotto do something this weekend.

I luv the first shot, wonderful.

That 85/1.2L is some lens. Also like the composition with light and shadow.

Howdy Srini,


I am almost speechless, and all the best adjectives are already used up

I think this is one of the "Finest Images" I have seen you post, and you have posted a lot of very nice images. The Subject, the lighting, and Composure is perfect.

[engstrom]

Very nice picture, you should be proud.

Thank you again friends for the wonderful comments, this has certainly been the best response I ever got for a picture I took, hopefully I can match it sometime in the future... Thanks again... Srini RR
