Summer portrait

Just finished a weeklong portrait workshop: five days, 9 to 4 each day. Very intense but so worth it.

Is "Summer Portrait" the title of this work, or of just the post?

In any case, the title works for both.

The colors suggest intense summer heat. including the storm-cloud hues behind the subject. You can almost feel the heaviness of her reddish hair.

I can tell you had a great time at the workshop.
