Mike D April 08, 2006

This is a stand out image! Shows all kinds of emotion and the clarity is perfect.... well done. MD

Do you mind me asking what lens you used for this shot? Maybe a quick rundown on the light set up for this shot as well if you don't mind... it looks like you had numerous lights from the catch lights in the eyes.

Nicole Kessel April 09, 2006

Thank you, Mike for such nice comments! I believe I used my 50mm 1.8 lens on this shot. It was all natural lighting. There was a row of windows in front of him and to his his left about four feet up and it was a beautifully bright day outside. I'm glad you like it! #2626637
