Basic portrait.

I took at Focus on Imaging show in the UK

Hasselblad had this model on stand so that if you wanted to try one of their cameras
you had a good subject to shoot.

However I wasn't quite in the market for one of their cameras so I took this with a 50mm lens from quite some distance and zoomed and cropped quite a lot.

The reason I submitted it was because I was curious to see how a very average shot with a very pretty subject would do in the challenge

very surreal, is she really that orange?!

This is just too weird not to love. I see it as a gorilla with a woman's head in a birch forest.

I would like to see this with better lighting. It looks like you bounced the light off the ceiling thus leaving her eyes dark and too many shadows.IMO Maybe have your beautiful model outside in the forest with more drama. Or bounce from the front or 45 deg.

Really cool and unusual portrait. I just love the way you set this up. 8

Nice Shot

I wish the skin tone were less orange and a bit more light on her eyes to decrease the shadows. Interesting image, nice composition and pose.

So did you buy the Hasselblad then?
