Nice Light

[Tropicalmemories]

Not the best portrait technically, and it had a distracting fence in the lower half, but I just liked the light so I tried cropping the fence out.

It is a nice image, did you try a tighter crop ?

Yes, but her arm looked too chopped. I saw the 'golden hour' sun under the tree, and took several shots trying to get a nice portrait, but none of them seemed to work.

In the tropics in a city, the 'golden hour' lasts about 5 minutes, so it was a bit of a rush, and there was hundreds of tourists in the area. I revisited the shots today to see if I could edit my way to a decent image.

These guys and girls were also waiting for the perfect golden hour moment.
