Have just checked the B+W one out also, but I have to say i much prefer this colour one...absolutely superb. I love the feel of it being almost a painting. Was it totally candid or did she know you were about to take the shot? Great capture either way.

It was totally candid, but as I was about to press the shutter she noticed me taking the shot. I think this makes it as she is looking straight at the lens.Have just checked the B+W one out also, but I have to say i much prefer this colour one...absolutely superb.

Yes, I prefer this too, fabulous colours. May I be cheeky and ask is this a processed RAW or a Jpeg? I the latter, what camera setting did you use, bright, vivid, natural???

I like the black and white one, but you've captured such vivid, gorgeous colours that it seems a shame to lose them. Sally

Hi Defragged, I normally shoot RAW, but as I took so many images on holiday I reverted to jpeg. This one is a jpeg in the 'natural' setting. The colours in the paintings were extremely bright and the light was very good too. I have adjusted levels in PP and increased saturation, but only very slightly (+6 in photoshop).Yes, I prefer this too, fabulous colours. May I be cheeky and ask is this a processed RAW or a Jpeg?

Thank you for the insight David. The whole photo looks like a water colour, quite stunning and definitely one for the album.

I wonder if the woman in the shot will ever get to see it!

I very much doubt it! I think I would have to become a successful and famous photographer for her to see it and I don't think that will ever happenI wonder if the woman in the shot will ever get to see it!

I couldn't pick between the two, i like the B/W but this colour version may have swayed me, such lovely colours that blend so well and of course the beautiful girl.
