tiabunna's photos with the keyword: 1958

I had read of a process called either "bokeh panorama" or "Brenizer Method", so decided to give it a try. The process involves combining multiple images and I needed a static subject, so the little red car came out. :-) Best viewed large. Explored.

While I'm away, I'll add another of the earlier images from my "100 Strangers" series, originally loaded to the 'other site'. The following are my original comments there: I took the little red 1958 Renault 4CV to the Canberra "Wheels" heritage vehicle display. As usual, it created quite a bit of interest. Sally was one of the many viewers and happily agreed to participate in my 100 Strangers photo project. She smiled even more broadly when I suggested she have her photo taken in the little car. Best viewed on black (just click on the photo). Apart from being a photo of Sally, this shows well how the "suicide" (front opening) doors give great access - even if their safety is questionable. I took a set of photos of Sally, who is a graphic designer in Canberra and who happily waited while I changed lenses for a wider angle. I gather that, in the course of her work, she is accustomed to working with photographers. My first photos (see shot below) were taken with a Pentax A 35-105 lens and gave great close-up portrait results, but I wanted the wider shot - so changed to the the Sigma 17-70. When it came to putting the photos on here I was uncertain which to make the main shot, but finally decided to go with the 'environmental portrait' : your thoughts would be welcome. And Sally, thank you so much for your cooperation. This picture is 05 in my 100 strangers project.
