Out in the Cold with Kay

So the forecast was 50° and I grabbed the chance to get outdoors with one of my most gorgeous regulars, Kay. HOWEVER, the actual temp was 34° with a frigid wind.
Nevertheless, Kay said "let's go" so off we went in 5 minute spurts with the nice warm car kept close by. She's not just insanely beautiful, she's a serious trooper.

    she is gorgeous and poses well..the light, the focus, color...all good. The main issue I see are distracting backgrounds..either the backgrounds are messy or not blurred sufficiently!

    Thanks Quarick.

    Most of these are wide open and fully extended tele so that's it for the gear.

    Once again, thank you all. I've rarely gotten (and less often deserved) such uniformly positive reaction to a set.

    I'm going to have to send Kay flowers or something. Laughing.gif

    Good set, you have a drink top in 9 at the bottom of the pic that could be cloned out.

    If not for those damn windows right behind her, going through her head, Number 4 would be just about the best photograph you've ever taken. WOW.
