Blue (Day 8)

Wow its only Day 8 and I feel like I have been taking photos every day for well over a year :p

So this photo kind of evolved over the day. Thinking about lighting angles, composition, wardrobe. So I set up the lights took a few test shots and noticed that my WB wasn't set correctly to flash (52000K) but I kinda like the result. I switched it though to the correct WB and didn't like it, so back it went.

As I have been reading recently you have to like what you shoot, just don't shoot to be technically perfect etc. So with the WB being off here it doesn't bother me as it speaks to me and I like it. So remember its more important for you to like your shots than anyone else.

Then end photo I actually took pretty early on but continued to experiment with angles and composition. When it came to review time this one just jumped out at me.
