    Another beautiful work
    Yuri,
    how many total shots did you take of your model this time?:D

    I guess that's one of the big difference between life in Russia and US: back home people are still *walking* (so you can meet them on a street and initiate a casual chat); and they are not as much pressed for time as US big city dwellers, so one actually can sacrifice 30-60 minutes of their time for a crazy guy with a big camera, even if he is a total stranger:-)

    Great job, man! thumb.gif

    In Photoshop:
    -copy layer
    -Using lasso tool mark out a figure...
    - invert (Ctrl+Shift+I)
    - Blur -> Radial blur -> Zoom (5-7Amount)
    - some work with heaking brush.
