Harley's Box of Chaos - Belle (Patreon)

Pop culture comes to life on the Sunshine Coast with Manafest, a celebration of pop, Asian, and alternative culture through art, performance, and gaming.

I was a guest at the event which was part of the broader Horizon arts festival. This shot was taken from a balcony looking straight down. My assistant was on the ground holding the light.

You can see from the wider shot that the ground was rather uninteresting pavement which is why I zoomed right in and cropped the frame to the dress and you can't see the ground at all. This makes the shot much more intimate and solves the issue of the crappy ground. While I like the photo it is a lot of yellow so I used the red rose petals a motif from the story but the image definitely benefited from the splash of red.
