Bridget on Blacktop

Senior pictures photo shoot with Bridget Fisher

Sometimes odd combinations can help create interesting senior portraits. Like a blacktop road, cornfields and a girl dressed up for a homecoming dance. It helps if the girl is Bridget Fisher, who obviously was having fun with the unusual juxtaposition. To separate Bridget from the background requires a shallow depth of field, so I used a lens with a very wide aperture (f/2.2). Shutter 1/1250; ISO: 100; focal length: 50 mm. (By the way, this was taken last month on Pin Oak Road near I-55 in Madison County, Illinois.)
