Sunset at Lake Tahoe
Lake Tahoe in an awesome sight. This photo was actually shot by Shraddha in a hurry while we were just finishing a drive around the lake perimeter. This road goes all around the lake and this portion of the road is quite higher (in many places it’s at the water level). Shot with Nikon Coolpix 4500 point-and-shoot camera.
Auto Program mode, Matrix metering.
Bleach Bypass
Bleach Bypass is an optical technique first used in 1960s to reduce saturation and exposure range. These days you can just use a filter in a photo editing software to add this effect. I have tried giving this photo a different look by adding this filter. I wanted to accentuate the expression on her face by adding this effect.
Exposure comp.: -0.3
Flash: +1.0, bounce flash.
Shraddha without makeup
Shraddha. Summer 2007. She never wears makeup. But has a very nice skin tone that always comes out good in photos. I’ve adjusted tonal contrast a little bit to give this photo a studio look.
