Here are a few of the progressive steps in I used in taking and processing a couple of shots of Brenda to attempt the "High Key Soft Color" photography technique. Here's a link to some information on the technique.

Others taking the Photographic Technique Challenge are here.

I absolutely LOVE 4 & 5 Larry, of course, Brenda is gorgeous all the time :)) McMommy · 2012-05-24: 20:31

The slight side profiles of 4 and 5 are great examples of this technique! Thanks for the editing info! mwbergeron01 · 2012-05-24: 21:07

Absolutely gorgeous Larry. She is very beautiful and you photographed her so well. liveandletlive · 2012-05-24: 22:19

Hard to pick a favorite. Although #3 is rather freaky... a head without a body. Those eyes do pop don't they. RayNvb · 2012-05-24: 23:35

Yes lucky you , but I like Brenda in the natural state , these ghostly portraits are rather creepy MoMac · 2012-05-25: 04:36

Perfect i think! #2 it's that i consider more adequate to the ptc proposition. Because an excessive contrast, destroy the soft tones from colour. Good work my friend!. ASINUS · 2012-05-25: 04:49
