leaf land...before and after...puh...

Guess all the magic disappears when I post the before and after...?

Went out early Saturday morning to gather some leafs and branches, had an appointment with my model later that day. Did not have a clear plan as to what exactly to make, but wanted to create something out of autumn leafs. My idea was to make the model blend into the leafs as if she was a part of nature itself.
As you can see, I had to work my butt off in post, if I had planned the shoot better, I guess I would have had an easier job afterwards, hence it is kind of rewarding to create as I go too...

Hope you have creative and interesting days!

Peace

Museum of Art, Hong Kong

Not easy to move around in HK these days, as the police has blocked many streets and larger areas. There were places we were told to keep away from, so we did...I was a bit disappointed when it comes to the national museum of art, as many exhibits were closed. However, I'm glad to have put my feet there...I did enjoy taking loads of photos of random places and happenings, a real tourist snapping away at anything, really, without any preparation or previous thought.
Have a wonderful week end:-))
