Madame Zambini

Along the same lines as Zoltar, today's shot is of another "fortune teller" located at the Buckhorn Saloon, this one being Madame Zambini. It was easier to isolate the reflection in this shot than it was for the Zoltar shot, in fact I was able to set up my tripod so it didn't appear in the reflection at all (the two second delay was just long enough for me to move so my reflection would not be in the shot either). I added a lot of bokeh using Bokeh 2 again, although it didn't need it as badly as Zoltar did. I do like the way it added to the "mysteriousness" of the shot, so I did it again. This shot I did pure black and white, with Zoltar I used one of the settings that made the background look a little blue-silver, which I think actually caused some distraction from the wooden exterior of Ms. Zambini. The "fortune" that is highlighted is "most likely", which hopefully reflects my own curiosity of if today's shot will be well received or not!
