Christopher,

Great series! The man with the lamp is perfect!

My daughters and I visited the Kiton factory a few years ago as we spent the summer touring what may be the greatest country in the world
The people at Kiton were so kind to us, we spent a great day at the factory.

The following year we did a trip again and visited Borrelli, which was wonderful, but it just isn't Kiton, nothing is like a Kiton.
And nothing, is like your work!
Bravo Master/Maestro.

Thanks all. I appreciate encouragement. There were six in the series for Kiton. I have scans of these two.
Back to earth. Giovanni bellini was using this isolation technique in 1500 AD. Andrea Solari at about the same time did Christ on a background tied to the door jamb with string and tennis balls (yes we had tennis in 1500).
I had another go at it with some factory workers (not LF) for Artemide, using a smaller background for more factory. My clients need to show that they actually make the stuff in Italy.

Very nice Daniel! I think I've never made an image with the 18" Verito I didn't like. Why don't I use it more??



Christopher! In a whole different league!
