Tysons Corner Center

Last month, I photographed the 2018 Easter Egg Hunt and Fashion Show at Tysons Corner Center. This time, the Fashion Court was again the venue for the event and was set up very early. Treats for kids to ‘hunt’ for was scattered on the floor, and segmented by age. That is, the younger kids would have a chance in a separate section without being trampled by older kids! When the stanchions were released, the hunt too only a few minutes to complete! Lots of Easter eggs, coloring books, and games were cleared out so quickly.

Spring Fashion Show

After the 2018 Easter Egg Hunt was completed, they cleared the floor, and held a Spring fashion show in front of the glass elevators. Being that this was the first time I had covered a fashion show here, I was excited about the new location! With the Turkish Coffee Lady store in front of Lord and Taylor, this would be the new location for these shows. Setting up the flahes and shooting in this larger open space was a different look, but I think it made the models pop off the screen much more!

Sunday Break

Has Spring finally arrived? We were out pulling weeds and getting the garden ready yesterday, so it sure feels very close! It has been a busy week, and today feels like a good day for a break from the usual Sunday. Happy Easter to all that celebrate, and thanks for stopping by the blog! I think I’ll try and make more photos today. Stay tuned to see if I come with anything good.

For this post, I went back to find some recent spring blooms that I have come across. Although it is not usually recommended to crank color sliders in your post processing programs, I could not help it for these. Are they over cooked to you? Overall, red pops in digital images, so it is easy to go overboard with it. However, I could not help it with the dahlia image. Perhaps the bright yellow center is a nice contrast to the surrounding color.

For the daffodils in the flower arrangement, it was not as much the yellow that I boosted, but the blues and greens. This is usually avoided in photos with people as it destroys skin tones. However, I like how all the colors mix together in this frame. Don’t be afraid to push the color!
