RETRATOS PARA "A PERSONAL PHOTO CHALLENGE"


O tema do desafio  deste mês é RETRATOS.
Estou perdida, pois, eu não gosto de fotografar pessoas. E agora?
Me empenhei, li todos os artigos sugeridos pela Donna e mais alguns livros que temos, pedi uma grande amiga que posasse para mim, fiz muito mais de 100 fotos e... nenhuma ficou boa.
Recorri ao meu arquivo. Nada realmente me agradou, mas, escolhi estas duas. 
Amigas queridas, em momentos de descontração, em nossa casa

Câmera Samsung  Digimax A50/KENOXQ2 modo automático

Câmera Nikon D3100 - Manual - luz natural
Para mim, fica a certeza que preciso praticar mais, estudar mais e tentar gostar deste tipo de fotografia...

Para Donna (a hostess do desafio), desejo saúde e que ela se recupere o mais rápido possível da cirurgia!

Para todos, um bom fim de semana!

  2. You did a great job with this month's challenge. It is always hard to photograph people. I will only photograph close family or friends, but there are so many other wonderful faces out there to capture.

  3. Eu gosto particularmente de fotografar pessoas (se calhar porque fiz disso profissão durante 10 anos), e sempre que possível utilizando uma tele-objectiva.
    Experimente.
    Ficamos com o retrato isolado do "cenário".
    O "retrato" também pode ser dos "4 patas"... Acredito que darão uns bons modelos.

  6. Other than the two I chose, I don't think I could have come up with anything else. Your two friends look relaxed and were good subjects for a portrait.

  7. Most young children don't mind having their photo taken - but I find adults are reluctant subjects!
    You did well Eglea - this was not an easy challenge!

  8. Excellent shots Eglea....I agree with Roses, Lace and Brocade, most adults don't like to have their pictures taken. Good job!

  9. I agree, most adults of a certain age do not like being photographed - me included!! So silly really, we go out each day and people see us as we are, and yet we ourselves don't want to see how we appear in the moment when the camera clicks and catches us. Perhaps when life is showing on our faces we become shy knowing we are no longer perfect as we were as children! But that IS life and we should be proud of all we've done, even the bits that end up as lines and wrinkles! Yes, let's keep photographing the children and animals, much easier, haha!!

    Love your two pics - having friends is so important.
    Thanks also for your comment.
    Hugs - Mary

  10. My hat is off to you for putting so much time and effort into this month's challenge. I have yet to be able to get that done! Your photos are nice, and show that you did indeed learn a few things about portrait photography. Don't give up!

  11. I like these photos of your friends. Both seem relaxed, one deep in thought...good captures!

  12. They're very nice photos- maybe the relaxation is key for to get a shot you feel good about? Keep practicing!

  13. These are lovely candid portraits and you used the lighting to your advantage in each one. Part of the challenge is making the effort and learning what works and doesn't work for us. Even though you weren't happy with the results from your special photo shoot, I bet you learned a lot! Portrait photography is one of those specialities that you either really like it or are indifferent. Feel free to practice more if you want to, but I know that the "animal" theme next month should be more fun of everyone! Thank you, once again, for join in and having photo fun with us!

  16. Eu gosto muito de suas fotos, Egléa, e essas, de suas amigas, ficaram muito boas no meu leigo entender. Já eu sou péssima como fotógrafa e como fotografada... rs
    Abraço!
