    Very nice play of shadows and highlights Michael. Was the statue illuminated or did you provide the light?

    Thank you Jack. It was those very shadows & highlights that
    drew me in. Plus it was such a sweet statue. The lighting was
    from an upper slightly offset light pole. Fortunately not way bright
    as they often are. I think the 2.8 helped to get that inky black
    that surrounds her. Setting white point and black point changed
    the color to more pleasing correct. :D Michael

    Hey Michael...

    Great capture here. You really nailed the exposure. Very interesting piece. Were there other statues in the area?

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Thanks Tom. :D Didn't notice any others that night and got wrapped up
    taking other shots. I'll set this image back to use somewheres. Did
    print a BW 11 x 14 & also color. Interesting to compare the two that way.
