A more typical pose

I described yesterday's pose as traditional but this type of photo is more typical of a portrait. Get the subject to dress up, look at the camera and have something significant in the background. As I also mentioned yesterday, the background is Chester Cathedral where the degree ceremony had just been held.

The photo on the right is one of the common changes that I make when I like a photo. Some people like sepia and a vignette. It is not to everyone's taste but it's my blog and I like the changes.

Happy snapping
