So here's the dilemma, we want to post the best pictures here in OPF as large as we dare and then also have folk enjoy them on their cell phones! Cem's post has sparked an interest in this subject, so here we have a thread devoted to the "Mobile" or "Cell Phone"!
I often hear different folks approach to inspiration for one's work. I am driven by impulse, stopping to photograph trees or some street vendor. Only occasionally does one find a person who lights up like a neon sign, "photograph me"! Yesterday, coming back from shooting a pumpkin carving competition, yes I'll show pictures shortly, I spotted a young girl walking alone south on highland Avenue towards Calumet, my drop off for the lights I'd rented for an orchestra shoot. I passed her thinking what a pity, no way! Then an open parking space appears and I took it. She's Australian model and her name is Madelaine. She was kindly sporting enough to agree to a shoot. As the sun was overhead at 1 pm, I chose to tame the harsh light using the shadow of a locked up storefront.

Hopefully, I'll find a nice location for a more planned and formal shoot.
