Golden Gate Park + Portraits!!!

[Kinetic]

Between work and meetings, I managed to get out and shoot some photos yesterday:


River of Gold:




Cups of Sun:





Conifer Ginko: (strange artifacts around the conifer pines, crap)




Ginko on Stone (meant to be abstract, I don't need to focus better =):





Through Golden Veils:




Palmy Red Balloon:




Portraits:

Great story - It was a stroke of luck that I met these two today in Golden Gate Park! Kat had come up and asked for directions, and we ended up talking a bit and decided to go do some portraits with Andy. This couple was a ton of fun to shoot! They were excited, motivated, relaxed, and bubbling with energy. The chemistry between these two is amazing. Looks like I have a few new models now! Hopefully I'll have a few more sessions with them in the Spring Time, AND in daytime. I hate shooting portraits at night =(

This is a fun thread, with a nice variety of nature and people. I think my favorite was the red balloon in the palm tree shadow, because it made me smile when I saw it.

The nature shots are very artistic in how you presented them, and your night shots of the couple are good because of the subject fit into their surroundings, including lighting and positioning.

You did good!
