Anto Vega posted this photo in the flickr photo group and it caught my attention. I liked how he used one light, a fast lens and did a little experimentation. One reason I selected this photo for this week is that there was simple ways he can take it to the next level and make it an even better image. Take a listen to this call with Anto to hear how he captured this and the few simple tips I gave him for making it better.
Be sure to add your images to the FroKnows Flick Photo gallery and maybe I will give you a call

These guys certainly don't know where to focus on girls….
Very cute girl!!
Love your work Fro!
@Dombowerphoto I know you commented on this 4 months ago, but I think he may have added the parasol to add more color. That's my guess anyways
aha! another photo from anto vega!
am I the only one who this a shot of a girl on a dirty beach with a sun parasol at night is a bit strange?
lovely model and lighting but dont get the parasol?
Antoooo 😀
She is gorgeous, great model.
When shooting this type of photo which method of metering would u be using? Matrix, partial or spot?????
Nice photo, Anto. It's a real stunner.
on my d7000, I just switch to AF-s, and I pick what cube I want to focus on, so I don't think I have this problem.
That pic is excellent !!

Hey Jared, You told him about cutting off the fingers. Could you make a vid showing where you should or shouldnt cut off. I know some times your in a very tight spot and not sure ie elbows or where thanks
this pic can be really nice on b&w also
Love this picture, less the fingers cut down :X
