Contemplation

Description

This a portrait I took today of my good friend Megan at Doune Castle.
I remembered that :iconmissykaren: and :icontiacapan: had set me a challenge to take 10 portraits. So this is portrait number two (or is it three?).

I did a bit of creative colouring with the portrait but I think it works better but I might redo the colouring in Photoshop so we'll see.

I really like how this turned out.

Please tell me what you think! :D

The subject is cool (I like her in this sort of 'candid' shot) and I love the contrasts of of the different greens she's set against. I think you changed her skin tone for this, and in some ways (if that's the case) it helps the overall picture (she stands out, but the color composition is consistant, vs a proper skin tone or a brighter one), yet either way her hue seems a tad flat. But WOW those greens and that setting... I like it a lot and really think that more subjects against such wonderful exteriors are worth experimenting with.
