Godders Godders Godders.... Selective focus portraiture has been in vogue here in Europe for several years, almost passe now. The latest fashion seems to be shooting sharp and blurring in PS in areas that would have been impossible to do at shooting stage. From landscapes to product shots - they're all at it. I don't do that but I do like minimal DOF in a portrait. <http://www.cottysnaps.com/snaps/portraits/images/pic26.html> <http://www.cottysnaps.com/snaps/portraits/images/pic31.html> Regarding style and fashion, I realise that cutting edge European trends take a while to filter across the pond ;-))) -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
