Sleeping Beauty


	Sleeping Beauty July 06 Canon 50mm, 1.8, Natural light Carolyn Foster Spano

Chastity Abbott

Georgous! I esp like the light on the leaves in the upper left hand corner on the leaves, how the light is shining through the trees down onto the beauty on the ground. Love the rich garnet red pants she is wearing. I really could go on and on. Great talent*

Thank you Chastity. That is actually a crushed velvet skirt that we found at the thrift store for $2.00. It photographed wonderfully.

Cari, you uploaded so many I don't know what to comment on!!! This photo is POWERFUL. The lighting is perfect, and she looks so innocent and vulnerable next to the scary forest. Love it, love it, love it!

I had a hard time where to start commenting in your gallery, so I decided to drop by on the first shot!!

you know I don't even have the right words for the amazing shots that you have here..anything I say will be less than the compliment these shots deserve ..so I will get back to viewing your gallery once more and forget that I tried commenting :)
