Nice work! I don't care for the processing in the first image... that half b&w thing doesn't appeal to me personally unless it is toned like you did in the 2nd and 3rd shots. 2 and 3 are a little heavy on the toning maybe. It is a great set though. I think I like the 2nd the best. Are the spots flare, ps, water?

great set..#3 is doing it for me!

Thanks so much you guys. MMatt, that flare in the 2nd shots is actually beads of sweat. The temps were hovering somewhere around 101-103 with a humidity index thick enough to cut with a plastic fork. Angie's a real slave driver and I was setting up the shot with scrims and reflectors and light stands and holding cameras and lenses and bags and moving distracting items and breaking back tree limbs and dodging birds (SC mosquitos) and all the while Angie's waiting for me to get out of the way.

...or, I love Angie to pieces and I'm just being a smarta$$. . It was added in post with a bokeh brush.

Ha Ha! Nice set any way you slice it my friend. I kind of assumed that the spots were ps induced because they are so perfectly round. Looks great though and I think most lay-folk would assume it was an in-camera effect.
