Julie (122) - Toby cutting the boards


Toby is the hack of yet another would-be student politician. He cut a fine figure on Eastern Avenue tossing his extremely lanky frame all over the promenade belting out the most wonderfully sounding gutteral rock'n'blues!!

Ann - hope you don't mind but I wanted to try and tone down the glare and the washed out shirt.

Really like the naturalness of his expression and stance. Very candid. The glary shirt was annoying me - hope you don't mind me tinkering, I may have gone too far the other way with the background.

It was totally candid! He was swinging around all over the concourse like a thing possessed! And I snapped away ... eventually the girl with him - trying to keep up with him - pointed me out to him and for a split second he stopped then he wanted to jump in the air and have me shoot that. I knew I already had shots better than that. So we came together and chatted instead. Delightful young man ... great voice.

Dont mind the tinkering at all. I took it out of colour for that reason and increased the contrast by 15%. The printing on his shirt is a mid-green. This was my first venture into M after the course with Michaela last weekend. I had it on the wrong F-stop and did not secure the exposure enough.
