I want to shoot at this location again before winter. Hopefully we'll get the chance asI want to do something more "flamour" (thanks to Rolando Gomez, for the term). I really want to use the tudor architecture to its advantage.

Anyways, this was shot in Willistead Park in the Old Walkerville section of Windsor, Ontario. The building is Willistead Manor. It was built by Edward Chandler Walker, second son of Hiram Walker (yep, the whiskey guys).

Wow... I love the colors and the DOF really creates a cool 3D effect.

Willistead is such a nice place.
I've never seen it captured better.

The lighting doesn't do the angle any justice. Her thigh is to light and by the time you get to her forehead, to dark.

Great pic. Angle and composition really highlights her gams, which are great too.

the shadow under her nose makes it look big, but the red dress makes the picture work

Love the dress and angle. Too bad about the lighting.
