And Ben, this is one of my favorite of your images. The draping fabric and echoed beads are a great touch to an amazing image.
Thanks everyone for your nice comments.
Don't ever give up! It's like trying to play the piano.
You just need a lot of practising.
sometimes all pieces just fit perfectly and that's waht happened during this shoot.
The boy had beautiful eyes, he was a good sitter., chemicals all worked just fine and I managed to put the lights the way it worked fine.
So sometimes you need a little luck also!
