Evenk girl in traditional head dress. (8.5.2011)
I suppose this could also be called, 'knowing when to give up' or 'don't get attached to a shot that's lacking the basics'. There were so many problems with this shot, but I like the look this girl's giving Rustem. Is she flirting with him? The camera? (He said it was the camera.) I took it to B&W as I just couldn't get the skin tones right, but she has such a pretty head dress I didn't want to lose it. Don't like the PP? Blame Susan. Have a good Friday.

on June 2, 2012Both ladies are truly beautiful Susan, and I love that smile. Yeah, I with Rustem on this one: she's definitely flirting with the camera - LOL ;^)
Seriously great image and nicely processed in light of the challenges you were having with skin tones Susan!
