Description Sometimes its fun just to stray from the usual and take photos that I typically dont take, like set up portraits rather then the usual spontaneous ones.

Lots of nice tones here, thats what makes me like this photo, the subtle red on her face is strange and fresh.

I was digging through old film, found this and thought it would be nice to post.

Canon 30V, Canon 28-135mm IS Lens, AgfaUltra iso 100

lovely portrait. I adore the way in which colors move the eye around the photo - the grays and reds repeat so subtley and yet so strikingly.

ahhh that is why it is so saturated... agfa ultra... I have a roll of it that I got for christmas that I am saving for the summer when there is more light. It should be fun to play with.

True, it is a bit unusual, different from the stuff you usually do. I love your usual stuff, but this is a nice change of pace, and you always seem to pull it off ^^

avotius In reply to Zlatty [2005-02-21 15:53:43 +0000 UTC]

yes, her face is slightly over exposed, I actualy have two version of this photo, one which I used that partial spot meter thing and the other where I just used the standard eval meter and the spot meter one looks better on her skin (although you can see all her blemishes) but the rest of the photo is dark and the camera just over comped to metering. Heh...wish I had taken this with a digital so I could actualy see what was going on....sigh, the bite of film.

As for that movie....uh....it seems that just about every asian student horror movie is like that....what is it with asians and student killer flicks? Its like some school uniform bloody guts fetish or something
