[QUOTE="Clovishound, post: 821889, member: 50197"] I used to do some portrait work back in the film days. I normally shot in B&W, but this one seemed better in color. Model wasn't terribly cooperative, and absolutely wouldn't listen listen to my suggestions. She finally fell into a nice 3/4 pose, and I got the shot. Then it was gone and so was she. I wanted to go in tighter, but didn't want to lose the flower.
