A very impressive piece of work. Great detail.
Thank you so much for taking time to review and provide the positive reinforcement Jolly Roger...
It is greatly appreciated...
Thanks for the love Photog8...
I appreciate your time and thoughtful consideration...
MattPhox you're way too kind...
Thank you so much for your lovely words... they are to be cherished...
Many thanks SeamusMac...
Greatly appreciate your kind words...
Albeit it was the superb model who deserves all credit here...
She was a joy to work with...
Great shot....would there have been a way to make her pupils smaller...I would like to see more color in her beautiful eyes...
"...would there have been a way to make her pupils smaller..." they are what they are charlienow... had the modeling lamps tracking and was at nearly full power... I joke with her that she is the only model I know who can virtually see in the dark... Only in harsh bright sunlight do her pupils contract... The problem is in the studio I have to compose with tracking modeling lamps... blasting the studio with ambient eliminates using tracking illumination...
btw, since this image is for her book I can't alter it in post... that is a serious no-no which agencies strongly object to... If you want to collaborate with agency talent then keeping it real isn't optional, it's a requirement... enough said.
Many thanks for the kind words charlienow... and yes in bright sunlight her beautiful iris are brilliant sapphire blue...
Have to agree with all the accolades above. Great work.
