    Beautiful. Another beautiful conversion, too - you're doing something really cool with highlights/texture thumb.gif

    Nice job of keeping competing light off the shoulder, good work.

    Thanks guys. Just trying to be a little more creative lately. Playing around with different lighting techniques and such. I'm really happy with this shot. It's a simple setup. One light (beauty dish) with a piece of foam core as a reflector for fill.

    I've also been honing my post work. Been spending more time on the little details, like stray hairs and selective sharpening, stuff like that.

    Looks fantastic. Are you using the diffuser on the beauty dish?

    I'm glad you took a break from photo for a little bit. Your new stuff is top notch!

    No diffuser. Just the bare beauty dish.

    Thank MG. I guess the break served as a reset of sorts for me.

    The more I look at this, the more I like it! I have used my beauty dish very little but am motivated to start testing with it after seeing this post
