This image of a pleasant-appearing young woman is one of a very small batch of images I did in color. Whereas the PlusX Arhive of Olde is all B & W, this was done using KodaSomething, circa 1980. She brought her own camera to the shoot so she could have some shots for herself. For each pose I'd take a shot using my camera and then do a repeat using her camera.

Is this a real natural outdoor shot using just available lighting or very real looking studio shot? You have the lighting so perfect that I was wondering if you could tell us some more about how the shot was done. If outdoor time of day and possible additional lighting or if in studio soft light box and possibly using a soft focus filter. Thank you

Outdoors, probably midafternoon. As is very common with my images, the subject came up with the pose. I might have offered some "let's change [ this or that ]. I have a feeling that she had done at least 'some' photo shoots before.

Well done! Love the warmth. Lovely lady, lovely image.

I spent way too many teen age years in a hot Texas closet with a towel tucked at the bottom of the door loading 4x5 film into Speed Graphic holders or twisting 35mm film from an Argus C3 into a spiral developing tank too appreciate B&W shots of most anything. When I see an early color shot of a young lady I am enthralled....Nice work indeed !!! Only wish that she was nude..

" She brought her own camera to the shoot so she could have some shots for herself..."
Speaks of her resourcefulness here... Experienced talent for sure...

As for the composition? Jim your visual statement shine's through brightly with your signature strong side illumination to bring out bias relief in your talent's facial features and physique...
Albeit the color harmonies latent within add an additional unique dimension here...

Loving the vintage feminine wardrobe selection... it's a stellar complement to her lovely porcelain skin tones...
However it is the classic elegance of those delicate slender fingers gently caressing this lovely flower that takes this capture entirely to the next level...

So poignant, so ethereal, so beautifully done...
Thank you for sharing your superb artistry here Jim...
