One of the photo groups went out to a park at sunset to do some silhouettes. I’d never done this before so I made sure to attend.
There were twenty of us, so we were always asking the two models to move. We pretty much needed them between us and the sun.
A few of these I cropped and a few I tweaked a tiny bit in iPhone on the iPad. When I say tiny bit, I mean one click and a drag (not a dozen adjustments).
I cropped a few too. When the contrast was just right there was too much black below the figures.
If I’d gotten a little lower on this one, I think she’d really look like she was floating.
I was surprised at how much red you could still see in the ribbon in this shot.
The bicycle was tricky because she needed to go slow and also not accidentally ride down the hill she was atop of.
This one I think I cropped too much, but maybe I was cropping something out. Regardless, she’s too much of the image but I love this one, I need to find the original and take another look at it.
I took hundreds of bad ones. Why? Because they kept moving. We didn’t have control over them moving, so we just kept snapping. But I got lots of good ones too!!!
