Girl Beneath the Fall
by: Peter Denness

Canon 400D
ISO 100
1/15th sec
f14
46mm focal length
18-55mm canon lens
Flash
Handheld

I love this image. The natural light gives a secluded, private mood. The flash gives stops the front water drops and fills the girl’s back.

I can think of nothing to add or change.

Thanks for the comments. I think the costume could have been nicer, maybe a bikini and maybe with the hair down instead of tied back. I cropped this image to give this composition as the original is wider. I also warmed it up slightly as the original white balance was quite cold. I was very new to photogaphy at the time so I must admit there was a degree of luck involved

Peter, I actually like her hair up because it shows off her back more, which I find to be one of the sexiest parts of the human body. If it were posed, I would have had her actually lifting her hair with her hands, as if she is putting it up, and enjoying the water falling on her back.
