Grace (Mono)

Saturday, 16 March 2002

Olympus C2040Z
1/100s @ f/2.6 (no flash)
105 mm lens, ISO 400

This is Grace just after a bath, when she's at her most cooperative.

This was originally a colour photo, which I converted to B&W in Photoshop using the Channel Mixer. I also increased the contrast and sharpened it a little.

The judge in the KSCC competition said it was a nice tight portrait, but thought the skin tones were a little too dark (the image here is a lighter version).
