I know there is a challenge when shooting people with dark complexions. She seems to have two tones to her skin (face, shoulder and chest), unless it's just the lighting (my guess). 5D * 20D * XHA1S * HF11

No real heavy PP done except bluring some of the back ground...I think the difference in colors/skintones you are are the reflected light from the large blue ball that was to the left of the photo...There is strong sunlight there and reflective light is always with you or against you..Thanks for the comments..

And lucky me?...it's an easy trip and not expensive..it's just a matter of saying "I'm going"...look around at the wide eyed stares you get from the family, turn away fron their incredulous looks and buy your ticket...all the time remembering that life is short and there are no promises that old age will be there as a time for travel and experience....Come on down Madam M..I'll have a place for you to stay ( and bring that Skip guy with you if you must!
