I like the focal point of the chair, but I really love the antiquity of the tracks and the girl in black and white! Hope you have as much fun with this site as I have.

Location
This photo was taken at an old train Bridge which crosses the Ottawa river in my hometown of Ottawa Ontario Canada.Time
I had been planning a series of photos with this particular red leather chair and the model, who happens to be a friend. We hit a few different areas across town for some of my ideas. 'Walk Away' was shot in the early afternoon.Lighting
All natural light...no flash.Equipment
CanonInspiration
Despite having been told by a couple photographers that color isolation photos looked "amateurish" I decided that my red chair series would be color isolation shots. I wanted to do something different. I wanted to prove them wrong. I had taken many different shots but none were quite what I wanted. Then, when we were taking a break, she walked a short waydown the tracks. She turned to come back and I yelled for her to keep walking away. The shot was done!Editing
Post processing was simple and obvious. The image, sans the chair was converted to b&w.In my camera bag
Camera, flash batteries, diffuser.Feedback
Use your imagination, forget what others tell you.
