we rented Studio backdrops and umbrella lights for our family portraits that i took the other day, and when we went to return them the guy said he was too lazy to inventory them, and offered to sell them to us for 110 dollars...

so we left the store having not returned them, and we got 2 backdrops *white and a black* and 2 umbrella stands/lights/accessories with 2 500watt bulbs all for 110 dollars.:clap

    Hey Daniel, That's a pretty cool picture. I like what you've done with the
    sky and that peeled back look.

    Cool stuff.

    It looks taped on, rather than peeled back (see other comment)... not sure what you were going for.

    I definitely like it though!
