outside a club in portals, i came across this man—cigarette in hand, lost in thought. with the glowing bokeh of the night as a backdrop, he seemed almost like a character pulled straight from a noir film. a fleeting moment of quiet amidst the lively chaos, caught in the glow of streetlights and conversation.

Once in 2018 I was in Venice for the first time in my life together with dear people. What a fascinating maze of canals, alleys and typical Italian richness of colors.
Micky was the real reason to go to Venice in the first place, she is a great friend, model, photographer and makeup artist.
But see for yourself what fascinates me about her, those eyes, that wicked little smile, that sense of posture and pose.
I wanted to take some Christmas pictures and use various props in my pictures. The first one was this cheap little hat that I bought from my local supermarket.
I took it out with me on our group meetup around London and the first opportunity that presented it self to use that hat, was at Leadenhall Market. As soon as I walked into the middle I was faced with this beautiful tall three covered in lights.
I tried to put my hat on the floor but it would not stand up, so I had to improvise. I searched my bag and pulled out my little light stand placed it on the floor and slipped the hat over it…simples!!!...lol
Due to the heavy amount of lights in there, when I got home and looked on the screen the picture was very yellow and my red hat looked very orange, I think that was due to the tungsten lights. But that was a simple fix and just changed the white balance to daylight.
I used the saturation brush and brought the saturation down a little and used the erase brush to bring back the red, then increased the vibrance a little just to bring the colour out a little and have the red stand out a little more. At this point I felt that there was something missing from the picture, so I took it in to PS and added a few stars just to give it a little bit more of a Christmas feel. I finally added a little bit of vignetting back in LR.
