Spending a week shooting just my old MF 50mm f/1.8
"I'm not really here, on this train.
Half inside, half outside
My brain's somewhere else.
Watching the lights of the city go by,
And dreaming up the rest
Of this movie I see half going-by."

Shungyeon comissioned me to shoot some promotional portraits of her the other day. Having just recently shot some nice ones of Ingrid in Yoyogi Park, and because Shunyeon lives in Yoyogi, we decided to use the park again.
She wanted a real variety of shots, but the general idea was to keep things natural and young-looking.

It's a dream to work with people like Ingrid. I was demonstrating the properties of a 50mm f/1.8 lens to one of my students and just shot this quick snap of Ingrid, who was there with us doing a bit of learning and a bit of posing.
You swing the camera around on to this lady and she switches on the magic in a nano-second. Then you realise that there ins't anything to switch on, because she is an absolute natural.

Post-pro in Photoshop:
Cross-processing filter in Nik, faded back to 60%.
Alien-Skin Polaroid emulation, faded back to 45%.
Few other miscellaneous bits of magic.....
