Lillian is a Maiko 4!!!

Posted by Nicole (Komono, Japan) on 14 January 2009 in People & Portrait and Portfolio.

I liked the playful fell to this one.. but I wonder if someone seeing it without the context of knowing that Lillian was basically dancing down the street (well as much as is possible with geta wooden sandals that is) would be able to sense any playfulness?

I played around with vignetting and a new feature with lightroom 2 allows for you to change the roundness of the vignetting. I liked the rounded edges fell for this one - made me think of a movie film reel for some reason.

Prints are now available for purchase!!
