Ok....I will be probably a few more on this thread but I am emulating only one photographer. You get to guess what phographer flavor these images have. If you succeed...then I have succeeded.

Now I will give you one hint. HE IS A DGRINNER.

Now my image....

    I've seen Shatch play with perspective in this way.

    I'm not entirely sure, but the way the focus switches from very sharp to very soft in the pants area, and the fact that the doll and the majority of the girl are in focus, I'd say you may have done some blending of multiple photos? I'm probably wrong, but was my initial guess. The doll could be photoshopped completely into the photo....just some thoughts

    Oh, I also think her feet look a little big and un-proportional...food for thought

    Actually your correct on a few things. This is two images...the doll was taken in focus and the girl and background was out of focus...then a picture just the opposite...the girl in focus and the doll out of focused. I layered them and removed the background where needed on one of the layers.
    As for her feet. She is considered in this world as a "little person". Her feet are actually that size. She is 10 years old although looks much younger. The ones I got of her with her shoes off....her feet even look bigger because then there is not justification that maybe it the shoes and not the feet.
    This is why I refer to her as my Lil One!thumb.gif

    Nice! clap.gif

    Great guy to emulate--very creative. Wish he'd stop being so busy elsewhere so we could continue to enjoy his work here.

    I'm also too new to digital grin to know Shatch's... - I see that his work is really fantastic.

    Your photo though is one of those that I cannot stop looking at - Wow - really something special :jawdrop

    I guess I'm getting better at post processing by being able to break down others images into how they were done...lol. The feet thing makes more sense now. Nice photo nonetheless!
