I love the quality you have given this image, Michael. I'd love to know more about how much is on set and how much is digital darkroom?

Awesome result! #4144473

Thanks Stephanie,Christy and Holly.
The BG is an alley I found in Ann Arbor Mi.. The only part of this that was taken in studio is the girl. She is actually leaning against an old trunk in fron of a green screen. Shadow was added in PS2. When I get back to the studio tomorrow, I'll upload both pics so you can see what I started with.. #4144504
