Challenge: Trends (Classic Editing)
Camera: Minolta DiMAGE 7i
Location: Vinsta, Stockholm
Date: Jul 21, 2003
Aperture: f3.5
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/45

Idea: Heavy metal. The only trend I know personally. I decided to do something similar to what might be found in a cd booklet.
Execution: The shot was taken in an industrial part of town, trying out various angles and poses. The camera was handled by my friend Patrik, who was kind enough to help me.
Photoshop: Increased contrast, decreased brightness, cropped a bit, resized, USM (the shot was b/w from the camera)

I feel this to be a very trendy picture because the features in the model reminds me strongly about old time rockers, nevertheless I am not sure about the picture by itself, if I didn't want a picture of the seventies I wouldn't print it

great subject. A less distracting background would make it even better.
