Normally I don’t do this. I’ve already shown this portrait as a second example in the tutorial for Tuesday, “571 - Them There Eyes II”. On the other hand, this was not the Image of the Day for Tuesday, and the image was actually shot on Friday, as an example for an utterly badly lit portrait, a worst case example, thus the timing is OK, because this is the entry for Friday. And then, apart from the fact that I had nothing better, I am also pretty damn proud of what I’ve achieved here 🙂
If you are curious now and haven’t read the tutorial yet, just follow the link above.
The Song of the Day is “Light Out Of Darkness” from Shirley Horn’s 1993 album “Light out of Darkness (A Tribute to Ray Charles)”. Sorry, neither video nor lyrics are available.
