I didn't have to bribe her. I sedated her.

Agreed with all the positives and negatives below. :) My major issue though is that her hair needs to be separated from the fireplace with some rim lighting. She's not looking all that comfortable with the situation - more doubtful than nervous though! LOL! What did you bribe her with. I think she thinks she'll never see it! LOL! ~ Lonnit

thanks guys. I'm glad I made it in under the wire. I just checked in the other day to see what the theme was and coincidentally I just got this chair. I agree about the frontal lighting and that was by design. I didn't want to disturb the symmetry of the room. This photo was a pain in the butt to post process since I blended an ambient light shot with a flash one. Also, my fireplace is not actually red. I will give a pretend $5 to anyone who can identify that chair...

I like a lot about this, but the lighting on the main subject seems a little frontal. If it had been coming in from more of an angle, I think it would have rendered the model's and chair's shape a little better. But the graphical elements are excellent. -The Doctah

Ah don't know Grant...I love all of it, the fireplace wall, the balance, the modesty....this could become a defining image of our times...and kind of you also. There is a minimal feeling with all the modern tidiness.

Very nice, very expressive.

Best Wishes, Traveller

Wow! Sleek, modern, sophisticated, rich, sensuous, are a few of the words which come to mind. Delighted to have you picking up the 10D and joining in the eligible gallery. Truly elegant, Grant. -Michael
