Great shot Humayun I didn't see you taking them off to the side at the time. Isn't she wonderful! You have the pleats of her dress looking more contrasty than I could. Fantastic!

[ChrisM]

Great shot Humayun - perfect composition and timing, and excellent lighting.

I think they're rather consensual.

Beautiful pose, light, and location. She looks very natural in front of a camera. Lucky buggas.

Frank mate,

I took a couple of images at slightly different angles and knew what to expect when the waves crashed. It was just a matter of timing.

Next time, we shoot at Claireview? What say ye?

Troy,

Thank you, my friend.

She needed only the very basic direction -- she's a natural.

Shane,

Appreciate that -- but, she's the talented one! All I did was click a button.

Looking very nice Humayun

A small thing i would photo shop out is a bump seen in the below picture.
It is only from a aesthetic point of view ( she is a beautiful subject whatever i say).

Arrow pointing to area i suggested in below pic.
PS: the arrow should point a bit further

[Octane (Humayun)]

Good eye, Martin!

I will take care of that. Easy peasy.

Thanks, mate.

You got it all on that shot. She's walking on water, even the waves at the back making the shell.
