Golden Hour

   This photo was taken one evening after a failed attempt at doing some panorama pictures. It was hot and miserable outside and me and my boyfriend had been walking around for well over an hour trying to find a good location to do my panorama assignment. We had come into contact with two rather large copper heads and my dog was so eager for attention that she decided to start following us down the road. As you can imagine, it is not easy to get a panorama shot with a hyper dog prancing through the frames. Once finally decided to give up and walk home I was feeling rather defeated. Then I noticed the beautiful light poking through the trees and decided I should snap a few shots just for the heck of it. This is the result and I can say that I am glad I took a few seconds to stop and appreciate the view.

   I am not finished retouching these pictures, but I had a lot of fun with this session! I took these photos of my dear friend Carol this past week on my grandfathers property surrounding my home in Mocksville. We had been getting a lot of rain so I was nervous about going out, but thankfully the weather cleared up for us and we got a lot of shots. There is still so much more I wish that I could have gotten. There are just too many great locations in the area and only so much time to get that beautiful sunset.

Silhouette

   In my portraiture class, we are learning about feminine and masculine posing techniques. So for an assignment this week, we had to create silhouettes of both a male and female model to really get an idea of what makes a feminine and masculine pose. Typically, you look at the curve of a persons body to figure out the pose and it becomes much easier to see with a silhouette. On the left, you will see what is called an S curve which is a feminine pose.  To the right you will see a C curve, and this pose is a masculine pose. Poses are not just limited to S and C curves, but these are two of the most common poses used. So if you are ever looking for a way to pose someone for a picture, these are two simple ways of doing it!
