[Portfolio] Recent work, flamenco show (image heavy)
« on: February 25, 2016, 01:30:21 »
Even thou this looks more like a classic Daredevil image, or so I think. Hard post just for fun. I don´t know yet if the client will see this version.

The only thing that I cannot figure out is whether it is the beginning or the end of the dance :D
I would definitely show it to your client and this image will be used as a poster or billboard across the world on all continents advertising the artist!
This image will attract so much attention, that the artists are going to become mega popular and they are going to take Paco with them on all sorts of travels, and then NG will be so honored to have such a prominent inter-continental photographer among them.

My thoughts exactly  ;D ;D ;D


   Very good question, it is the -spoiler allert- end of the show. Maybe I can put it in context by making a sipnosis with images?
    Still working on them. I´m a slow editor and there are many of them with a nightmarish amount of red.

   Thanks for your input.

Keeping the reds in check was not easy. Wb had to be fixed or it will go crazy. D750 at the rescue...sometimes up to +2 whole steps. My work has never been so forgiving...After this, and before the bow, is the place for the first image in this post.

WOW - so many of these images are incredibly engaging and inspiring. There is as much movement in the colour and light as there is in the subjects themselves. Wonderful work.

Paco, I am certain that they will be very happy with the images!
They are great and they echo the show really well.

Great coverage, I love the way the reds dominate this.
For me the jump takes the cake.

cheers

Thank you for the comments. This is about 1/4 of the images selected, processed and send to the client. It was visually engaging with very good costumes and light and even better performers. Highly recommended indeed.

   Will post some shots also with the d700 and 24-70 2.8  later.
