Had I rekindled my passion for photography straight out of school I might have been a fashion photographer in another lifetime. Not one of those guys who's stuck on set all the time in a lifeless studio, but someone who does fashion outside in the "real" world. As it is, I'm always looking out for fashionable people on the streets even though my preferred locales in Mumbai are almost always void of such individuals. But I do happen to catch a few of them during the morning commute when I'm in the mix with them. And on this particular morning recently, these heels caught my eye from about 50 feet away. I wouldn't have gotten this shot had I not been playing around with my new Sony ZV-1 (24-70mm) because I'm a prime lens shooter and I'd been routinely shooting 24mm before I injured my finger. So I quickly zoomed in to 70mm and took some shots. Somehow, the off-angle works for me in this shot instead of the straight-on look that typically passes for the normal perspective.

On another note, I'd hoped to keep my post-processing to a minimum with the ZV-1 but that little promise went straight out the window on the first day of shooting. I just love it too much. And apart from my usual Photoshop doodling, I ran this image through Luminar Neo a couple of times for two rounds of creative touches. Check out the directory on my website if you're interested in purchasing Luminar Neo. I've got an affiliate link there that won't cost you anything extra but gives me a small commission.

I'm unsure whether I'll do anything with this image as far as prints go but I'll leave the door open to requests.
