the umbrella

Posted by Jeff (Honolulu, United States) on 15 February 2008 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

This image was made at a local park on a sunny day. It is not unusual to see women using umbrella's to keep the direct rays of the sun from their faces. In this instance, however, I caught a couple sharing the umbrella while enjoying their morning stroll through the park.

This photo was cropped rather severely and converted to B&W using channel mixer. Tomorrow I'll post the uncropped color version of this photo.

ISO 100, 1/500, f/9.0, e.c. +2, 165mm of 70-300mm

Image genre: Black and white photograph.

This site is the sister of "Aloha Photo" which is a much more extensive photo site and can be viewed at http://alohaphoto.my-expressions.com/index.html. Often images are posted in both places, but aloha photo has been in operation since 2004, so it has many more photographs. If you are interested in Hawaii please feel free to visit my other photoblog.
