Karen at the Beach


Introduction

Following my previous post of photos of Karen - I have some more here.  I'm having difficulty picking between the shots.  Which version and shots do you prefer?  Apologies for the weird numbering - I managed to upload them in a weird order but to stop myself getting confused I have kept the numbers from the the uploading order.  

These were shot in a combination of natural light (mainly for backlighting) and a beauty dish and/ reflector for front lighting.  It was shot very close to sunset and the light was varying quite a lot in both colour and intensity which made for some interesting variation in lighting.  Dunstanburgh beach where these were shot is right next to the North Sea which makes it very cold and prone to sudden winds.  It was a difficult shoot as I described before.  Unlike the previous shots most of these were taken earlier on before we were both frozen to the core!

I have used a split tone filter from Silver Efex Pro 2 for the black and white versions (they are together after the colour versions).  Hope you like them:)
