Very cool. Patrick.  How did you shoot this?

[Patrick]

Hi Anne , this Photo was as Bob Ross would say just happy little accidents 😉

I was under a bridge standing in the middle of a small river planning to do some light painting this shot was a simple test shot with wireless remote, i was looking to see how bright i needed my LED lights for a good exposure a trial and error process.

The image was finished with a very gritty look in PP.

[Bobbie]

I’m going back to reposting an older one this time

I remember it Bobbie, hands can tell a lot of stories about someone.

[Bobbie]

I think so too, Diane

[Pat Garrett]

I agree with you both.

[LeanneC]

Great hand shot Bobbie. I am imagining what he does…a gardener?

[Bobbie]

Thanks Leanne. No, he’s not a gardener. He’s retired now but when he was younger, like many kibbutz members of his generation he worked in a lot of different places both agricultural and administrative.

[Miriam Moreno]

Doing this without a model has been challenging but lots of fun!

[Tersha]

Very nice Miriam, inventive!
