It’s kind of a thing with people who own Zeiss lenses that one of their main selling points is the way they render bright colors. That fun little factoid comes to my mind when I look at this image.
Every so often when I make a digital photograph the image comes out perfectly right from the camera. No photoshop. No fancy color adjustments. No nothing. Just pop the image into photoshop, resize it for the internet, and there you go. This was one of those times.
The wind was blowing something fierce on this particular day and we couldn’t work for more than a minute or two at a time before the model felt like she was freezing from the cold. I have to give her a lot of credit. She stuck it out in short spurts for a couple of hours and we walked away with some rather glorious work. I was in particular happy with the opportunity to get the bright oranges and yellows of the fall foliage captured in an image.
I almost didn’t bring a digital camera with me for this session. Looking at the results I’m really glad I did.
