My competition winner.

I thought I would share with you my winning 'Celebration of Spring' competition photo.
I tried to fit everything into it, blurred background but with highlights, soft foreground interest, and of course a stunning subject and I think you will agree that she is gorgeous
I think it was my models professionalism that actually clinched it, rather than my photography. A gold reflector was used to give warmth.
I hope you like it.

As always, please respect copyright laws.

 

Very nice

 

A stunning photo NG .

 

Thanks comrades
As for metadata, I would have to check out the original image on a pc. Not this silly tablet!
I think I used a Canon 50mm prime lens.
As for Zigs, I am sure he means both??

 

Gorgeous shot and a stunning model: no wonder you were a winner with that winning combination. CongratUlations

I'm sure he'll tell you he did

 

Awwww thanks M
I am hoping that she can read the thread despite not being a member.

 

Amazing, You really deserved to win, goodluck in the future

 

Congratulations NG

 

You are all so kind, and I know the model is very pleased with your comments
I hate saying 'the model', but I haven't named her for privacy reasons.
Have you all noticed that Zigs is staying very quiet

 

Firstly congrats on winning NG, a stunning photo and a
stunning model the golden reflector adds warmth to the image
and the bokeh effect is good background.
the warmth to the image.....

 

I'll be really interested to see the exif data. It's a super portrait of a super young lady.
Only thing I'm not 100% sure about is the catchlights; still trying to make up my mind, but they seem just a bit too dominant. That's just me being hypercritical. It's an excellent photo!
