It's a great shot again, Jim, although the look on your model's face indicates that he may have a little of the trickster in him. :-). Nice job.--Frank
Frank, Beverly, and Steve...Thanks! I really appreciate the comments.
Frank, he is a trickster.
Beverly, I actual have an action I wrote for a soft glow which I tried. Side by side....the non glowing one I preferred. Softening the image also detracted from the expression. However, we apparently think alike, because that is where I intended to go with this image.
Steve, for me, the light was the key to this shot.
You did a wonderful job of lighting a fairskinned redhead trickster.
One of my sons is a fairskinned strawberry-blonde and the other has dark hair and tan almost year round. I spend a lot of time frustrated when I'm lighting them.
I love this idea, and your model did a fantastic job!
Jim,
Great entry... I really like the lighting. Good job!
To me, his expression has a bit of a "Please, please make dad get me a pony..." look to it.
Regards!
