Great profile and another use of great light. Piet, remember the threads we used to enjoy (and the trolls we didn't 
) with discussion and examples of light: color, direction, intensity, shooting into the sun. So much inspiration!

Nice warm colors, very calming.
thanks Frank, I was a little worried that it was too hot/warm, but that was the way the light was.

) with discussion and examples of light: color, direction, intensity, shooting into the sun. So much inspiration!one editing technique that I have been using a LOT lately that sometimes adds depth and form. Most figures/forms have three types of lighting intermixing - that is:
1) You have an area that the light hits strongly and brightly. For this area, I like to a) shift the color to a (perhaps) cooler feel, b) reduce texture, c) reduce contrast
2) You have an area that is in shadow. For this area, I like to a) shift the color to a warmer feel, b) reduce texture, c) reduce contrast
3) You have an area where the form turns away from the light. For this area I like to a) go a little cooler, b) Increase Texture, and c)Increase Contrast, d) Increase Sharpness.
The areas that turn away from the light (for me) look best when you give them the greater contrast/texture/sharpness when compared to the light areas and the dark areas. And the image seems to look more interesting if you handle the three areas differently.

Thanks so much, Piet! I will try something this weekend.

good luck and have fun, Also think about other things like Saturation. Perhaps the bright areas would be less saturated, the dark areas a touch more saturated, and the Turn areas the most saturated.
