Jesse was one of three volunteer models at a Pakenham Camera Club portrait workshop. This is my favourite image. I think the B&W treatment really suits the old wrecked jeep she is leaning on. Shot with a Canon 350D.

Many photographers shoot in raw, in order to get the best from their images. But just because your software allows you to recover loads of info from the shadows doesn’t mean you should. Sometimes leaving the shadows dark, or even making them darker can be a better approach. If you look at the work of famous landscape photographers, like Joe Cornish, you will see that they like to leave their shadows dark, sometimes almost black. For mono work, I feel this is most important.
