The young woman here is beautiful, and I love the reflection of the keyboard in her sunglasses … but I gotta tell ya: the combination of grass and green-glow on the back of her laptop is out of this world. I have to admit that I used some color saturation to pump up the colors a little … but not much. This photograph made itself: I just happened to be in the right place, at the right time, to point my camera in the right direction and push the shutter-button…

For a change, I agree! She IS beautiful!
Believe it or not, I took this photo primarily because of the wonderful combination of light, green grass, and silver Mac cover. The lovely young lady was just icing on the cake, metaphorically speaking…
Uh-huh
Please Add your Beautiful Photo to RecoilX2

Amazing colours!
Thanks! I have to admit that I saturated the color of the grass a bit; but I think that what really makes this breathtaking is the glow of the grass against the back of the Mac. I can’t take any credit for that…
