PORTRAIT
ANNETTE COLLINS
My hoodlum
EDITOR’S COMMENTS
Annette Collins says she captured this image on a beach. “I noticed the light reflecting onto my son’s face nice and evenly so I snapped this photo, hood and all. I converted it to black and white to simplify it and remove the warm colour casts the sand was throwing onto his face. I used Topaz to emphasise his freckles and do the Black and white conversion,” she says. As well as the freckles, you’ve also caught interesting light in your sons’s eyes, which adds up to an evocative portrait. Well done.
TECHNICAL DETAILS
