How'd you get the pure white background in this. VaWendy gets this look a lot to. |

This is spectacular. If it's accepted as a portrait, should be in top 5. Well based on the score thread I'm guessing this has been validated as a portrait! ;) Again, stunning capture, love the wings and the high key presentation. |

Gotta be a ribbon here because of the skill involved. Would love to know how you did it. Stylistically or maybe aesthetically, I prefer the more natural pictures. But that's just a matter of taste; and I can clearly see that this is a masterful photo. |
