[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I stopped to see the fog rolling around the Golden Gate Bridge the other day and noticed this pretty photographer doing the same thing. I found her much more interesting and asked if I could take her picture. She was happy to finally be IN the picture instead of behind the camera.

What a great shot Roger! Love her natural look, and expression. You have the shadows to deal with here, but I like the diagonal shadow from her hat, shading one eye and not the other.
Really nice!!

good shot Roger! photographing the photographer.. nice composition... love her smile... excellent BW treatment... TFS

I'm personally not a fan of shooting in strong sunlight because the shadows that are cast bother me. I had a shoot on Sunday with a lot of images discarded for that reason, but I guess it's personal taste, and, in some cases, can work quite well, as I think it does here.

A nice portrait.

p.s. I recommended your work to a TLer whose shot resembled a 'trophy snap' yesterday, and suggested that actually asking appealing strangers for their photo produced much better results than sneak-shots from behind!!

Hi Roger:
The B&W treatment works so well here...a very pleasant smile that you capture...a moment in time very well presented!!!

hello Roger..amazign portrait shot great composition... well done as usually great work ... thanks for sharing ...

Hi Roger,
Great portrait, good to see that she's a fallow Canon photographer :). The composition and exposure looks good here, nice focus due to the shallow DoF too. I quite like the B&W effect, and how she's looking away from the lens. Excellent job.

TFS,
Scott.

Roger,

Nice portrait. You had a natural light and luckly she was wearing a hat to protect her eyes from the sunlight and not blink.

Cheers,

Wellington

Hi, Roger -
Wonderful candid portrait of this interesting and attractive young woman. You managed the strong sunlight well - the features of her face and her wry smile look wonderful in b&w. Great background, too. Very nicely done.

Hi Roger!

Very interesting portrait! Shadows look and work very well! Nice mood!

Regards,
Edward

You have a good eye She is very attractive I like her relaxed pose and the natural lighting compliments her appearance TFS
warm regards
David
