Happened on this little beauty as we were leaving the hotel in Sturbridge, Massachusetts. It lives in Connecticut but was on the way to New Hampshire to be restored. OK, it's not actually a 'beauty" just now. But wait a year!
It's a 1929 model.
Model: Aimee wearing Dolce & Gabanna
Incorrect studio flash sync speed had ruined this image. And, a perfect pose in combination with a perfect facial expression is gone the instant the flash triggers. Models tend to go on to their next "look" or a variation of the previous.
What happens when using Radio Triggers, whether cheap Made-in-China types or more expensive PocketWizards, the Shutter Sync Speed is slower than using the old-fashioned PC-sync cable and the Shutter does not clear the entire frame before the image is captured, resulting in a blurred dark strip along the edge of the photo, and for film cameras it would be on the side of the frame and for digital cameras, it would be at the bottom (right side of this portrait).
My photoshop skills are deplorable, so, I just cropped the image.
The pose and facial expression of the Model was just too nice to discard or dismiss this image.
Over 1,000 Views in 24 hours. You guys are crazy. Glad you like it, though.
