 *shrugs* Figure study.

Motivated by the colors of the staff (which is named Musubi), I was playing with green and gold light. Green on a seamless white backdrop, gold for the key light.

Then in post played with some new techniques for haze. I like bloom and such the best of times, I kind of turned it up a little higher than normal.

i was hoping this would be top 10. the processing is simply fantastic. there's just so much interest in this shot, the composition and color really elevates this to a higher level. awesome job.

I kept coming back to this, and coming back, and coming back. This time I'm coming back with a third Golden Bear Paw, since you also got a 10 from me.

This is an interesting shot. The bamboo pole dissecting the subject like that is effective.

I hope you'll get a lot of comments about the movement of the body.
As the picture is slightly bigger than my screen, I find it even more interesting with the bamboo cropped at top. It leaves a very nice diagonal.
Wished it was candid.
