i think the post processing is abit too artificial. especially the lens flare.. i dun like the photoshop lens flare.

I like the first and third pix but not sure why there are tiny micro lines across all the pix.

Thanks all for the inputs and kind comments and questions! right now i m tied up with preparation of my trip on the 1st. i will definitely be replying to each of you when i m back, as well as finishing up the series : ) more to come!

in summary, the series is inspired by Frank Eugene 's 'unphotographic photography'. but because i m into the world of colors, i added in color and compositional elements of classical paintings. i ve also replicated Frank Eugene 's hand etchings and scratchings on negatives style in photoshop manually.

Thanks for your time! good day to all : )

This is nice.. but feels that a tighter framing might be better.. the BG doesn't really add to the picture.. just the model/pose is nice..

Very nice feel, this set is very successful with depicting the intended mood. Care to share abit on the background treatment?

so sorry for the late reply! in summary, the series is inspired by Frank Eugene 's 'unphotographic photography'. but because i m into the world of colors, i added in color and compositional elements of classical paintings. i ve also replicated Frank Eugene 's hand etchings and scratchings on negatives style in photoshop manually.

thanks for dropping by!

bro, can u share with us how u took these photoes, significantly the background?

so sorry for the late reply! i didnt have special techniques. when i took the photos i m just making sure the subject is looking best then give thoughts to the bg for composition. i guess the look is the result of post process.

thanks so much for the interest : )

Great pics :thumbsup::thumbsup:, but i'm constantly distracted by the effect(?) you used. It seems as if you shot through an old car window
