Beautiful Pic TG!
Were you known to the girl?
Otherwise she might have thought you were stalking her! :stupid

I see!
Beautiful shot anyways!
But, I would have loved a more pronounced outline of the girl, specially towards the head. Just my 2 cents

There is the right amount of rim light there, just that the server compresses my image and makes minced meat of it.

He is basically looking for 120/220 films from Velvia or Ilford. Is it available easily?
I have a friend who used to shoot slide film or something. A rare medium I think. I can ask him if he is aware of any dealers for medium format films(he is based in blr)

tsk, that is a brilliant shot!
The bronze colour has lent a disticnt flavour to the image which is unseen over the length of the thread! The neatness and sharpness of the shot makes it absolutely different from the regular shots that we capture. Sometime the camera does see more than we do! Cheers!
