    Nice. Now just Alice for the full set.

    Canon EOS R5, R6 plus the usual suspects ......

      Very nice. However I find that the background is very artificial. Anyway each one to his own.

        Thanks for looking

        its not meant to be a "street" image but a fairy tale/fantasy, so it has a background in keeping with where the original tea party was held. Fantasy images are still the "in" thing amongst photographers in competitions and there are a couple of people in our camera club who have it to a fine art having said that, it is not really my thing and when I see one my thought is "not another of those", mind you they probably say the same about my bird images

        Now just Alice for the full set
        no Alice - I got it wrong, the hatter was with the queen

          I quite like the background. I expect it was impossible to do at the time, but it would have been nice to have had a reflector to lighten the shadows of the face RHS.

            I like it Stan but the Mad Hatter has the edge.

              I am always willing to learn and still learning from more experienced folk like you. So it is something to think about for me but I don't think I have that sort of expertise with PP.

                busy street with loads of people....no chance

                Here is just a standard portrait, as shot but cropped tight. This one was taken later in the day

                  I think the BG adds to the Story line. Well taken Stan
