Dan DiGiovanniVintage 60's/70's hippie vibes w/Ginger at the <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/floridabotanicalgardens?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#floridabotanicalgardens</a>. The hippie-esque outfit/vibes warranted post processing this shot (and others from the set) in that matte style that was common and popular for much of the 60's and 70's to recreate the style/look of the era as best as possible. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/vintage?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vintage</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/matte?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#matte</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/mattelook?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mattelook</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/vintagestyle?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#vintagestyle</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/retrostyle?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retrostyle</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hippie?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hippie</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hippiegirl?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hippiegirl</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/60s?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#60s</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/70s?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#70s</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/retro?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#retro</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/model?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#model</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fashionmodel?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashionmodel</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/classicaesthetic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#classicaesthetic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/60sfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#60sfashion</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/70sfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#70sfashion</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fashionphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fashionphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/portraitphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#portraitphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fujifilm?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fujifilm</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fujixt3?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fujixt3</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/fuji1655mmf28?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fuji1655mmf28</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturallight?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturallight</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturallightphotography?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturallightphotography</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/naturallightphoto?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#naturallightphoto</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/aperturepriority?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#aperturepriority</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/largo?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#largo</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/florida?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#florida</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tampabayarea?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tampabayarea</a>
Dan DiGiovanniA little <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/beforeandafter?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#beforeandafter</a> comparison, demonstrating my editing style/aesthetic. This shot was in B&amp;W from the get-go: on the left is a straight out of camera JPEG version (created in camera, I set RAW and JPEG creation in tandem) of it that served as a proof for viewing, on the right is the end result after making adjustments in <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/lightrooom?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#lightrooom</a> and <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/photoshop?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#photoshop</a> (don't remember exactly what I did but it was minimal, including lifting shadow/dark tones a bit).

Dan DiGiovanniBringing the week to a close with another <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/epicsunset?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#epicsunset</a> for good measure. Taken at Sunset Beach in Treasure Island, FL before back to back blows from Hurricanes Helene and Milton devastated the area. Those people in the foreground looking towards the sunset added a nice element, so I decided not to brush them out in post.
