Lady Knitting

I saw this woman knitting at the Farmer's Market, there was a busy background so I did some processing and changed the background to black. I actually got up the nerve to ask her if I could take her photo!

I always appreciate your comments and favs. :)
Nice casual shot. Well done.

The black background is very effective and really focusses the eye on the lady knitting. Well done you for getting up the courage to ask her.

@ceilidh Margaret I made the background in a program called photoshop
Elements, I just used a blank page and painted it black. I then loaded the photo of this lady, quick selected her then copy, then pasted her onto the black page.............that simple.
