Following my making Lili's portrait [stranger 207] I had a further wander around Cambridge before the light started to fade.
I saw Amber striding along the street in Cambridge looking like a woman on a mission.
I wouldn't usually ask someone if they appeared to be in a rush to get somewhere but thought i would take a chance as I thought Amber was very stylish and had a friendly face!
Happily Amber agreed and luckily we had stopped beside a perfect background.
Amber is from Bournemouth but is studying English at university in Cambridge.
"I am on my way to choir practice!"
"I study English as I enjoy it and will eventually do my Masters but I really want to be an opera singer."
Thank you Amber and good luck!
Something struck me when I looked at Amber's portrait on the back of my camera, that is how similar it was to my previous rounds of 100 strangers style.
Those were all natural light and I could probably have achieved that same look without OCF and using a reflector but thats not what this round is about.
I am happy to have achieved this look with what I feel is subtle use of the flash.
Comments and critique most welcome.
