Default For mello and whatt.

Photographers Comments
As requested by mello and whatt, the RHS has been cloned and this is a black and white version.
Personally, I think it is too dark, please give your verdicts.

Oh Alex .. Whatt .. an improvement ... like how you have cloned that background out ... It's a printer and a keeper ...

Surely you must be very pleased with the outcome!!
Cheers
Else

Whatt can I say? I am glad you like it Else, but I still think it is too dark.
Andy, I cannot tell you how pleased I was with the lighting considering I only used my Nikon with an SB 600 flash and diffusor.
Steve, yes it looks better with BG done, but I think I will change it to sepia again.
Thanks to all of you for your comments and assistance

OK, OK, OK I give in Dennis. For a moment there I thought the reply was from my senior manager (AKA the wife). Same tone of voice. I am going to do a print now. Cheers
