and congrats again here.

the color of the background works so well with the overall hue of the material. i should keep that in mind ;)

new camera? ;)
(and of course.. I'd love to know which lens you used.)

again, this portrait is soo good. each amount of focus in any spot on the spot. plus, the right moment. well well done.

^ thanks g: Phillip tends a farm in Connecticut, and the barns are commonly painted in deep red color, which is the background of this shot. After seeing the result, think I'll get a backdrop of the same color. I initially thought of using a fill flash to get a "catch light" in the eyes but I am happy with this one. Yes, new camera, sold a bunch of gears and some originals 4x5 polaoirds, it will probably be my last large format acquisition. The lens is a Kodak Commercial Ektar 12 inch f6.3. cheers
