[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
just another way to get rid of the distracting background ... as you may have noticed, over 90% of my shots are just snap shots, no setup or studio conditions at all. therefore in most cases i am facing two main problems: 1- distracting backgrounds, and 2- too low/high light. but ... i guess this is it, i had no intention of shooting professional photos (i am no pro either). i guess i am just sharing my daily life photos with somw better photographers, trying to learn from them :)
i have another color shot similar to this pose, but without the ghost-like background, which i will post in due time :)

Hi Hamed,
J'aime beaucoup ce portrait. Je suis curieux de voir l'autre photo en couleurs sans les effets dont tu parles dans ton commentaire. En tous cas, celle-ci est très réussie. J'aime bien l'expression de son visage. Merci pour le partage.

Hi Hamed,

Once again, all my wishes to you and the woman model..
Both make fantastic images....
This has the musical moods...
A real symphony....

Hi Hamed,
Very succesful picture in b&W! The background expresses movement in contrast to the model. It could express her thoughts..... Only remark: think the crop on the right side is to tight because het left arm was cropped.
But on the whole; a good job. Well done.

very nice portrait. I like your blurring of the background to avoid distraction from the model

Hello Hamed
Very creative image interesting use of PP to remove distractions well done
Kenny

Nice one. For a 'snapshot' this works quite nicely. A bit of a shame that you cropped off her fingers on the right hand side, but the light is lovely and the pose is natural. I love the honest detail of the skin textures here, I'm such a fan of reality in portraits.
Rew

Very interesting, and original, concept. I've learnt something here and will try the same if/when I need a distraction from the background.

Thanks for sharing your ideas and images.

Shane.

It´s a very beautiful portrait of a very hansome lady. I like your choice bg. Beautiful.

my regards

Hi Hamed:
I like the way you treated the background and made this look so dynamic with motion. To me it now looks like the model is looking out the window of a speeding train... well done work... great results............Roman:0)
