parafin

One more shot from performance The Dark. Challenging photo shoot but it simply

flowed like a charm. I would love to hear some comments, critique and development

ideas.

Very well done, light is just perfect!. Regards

Most intriguing and very well done!

a mesmerizing scene... invokes thoughts, questions; sparks stories... at first i thought it should be cropped tighter, a li'l from the bottom, a lot from the top -- but then i realized that would obliterate the impact of his shadow on the wall behind him which really showed up only in the enlarged version seen full screen on my desktop... i have just a single question: why does the index finger of his right hand appear serrated? are they processing artifacts?

Rajat, thanks for your kind words. About the right hand index finger, I really don't know. Looking at the full size pic in 100% makes me think that it must be the angle of light and shadow that plays here, no artifacts to be seen. But the look is pretty much the same in nef as it's in this jpg.

 

There's stearin/paraffin on each hand which glows in light so that might play some tricks too.
