Before the Flood

This is a long lost shot from my shoot of the Coyote Ugly in New Orleans. I went back and forth on this one. Something about the composition bugged me at the time but with some distance I've come to really like it. Perhaps it's the wide open aperture or that X that is formed by her top. I don't know. Of course it doesn't hurt that she has beautiful lips, freckles and hair. That could be it.

Regardless, it's another from the archive. It was shot with one light and maybe a reflector using my 50mm lens. If there is a reflector, I'd have been holding it with one hand and shooting with the other.

Make pictures.

I dig everything about this shot. Lips, hat, cross on chest. Makes you wonder what those eyes look like. Perfect.
