Detective

This photo is an interview photo for this detective for FHM

Lithuania. The section of the magazine is "Where our father's work"

If it was possible, two feet to the left would have helped clear the background.

Also, why manipulate the photo, when it is possible to get that effect with a magnifying glass? Just curious...

Cheers-

I had originally hoped to get the effect purely with the magnifying glass. But getting the right angle to see through the glass, and having an interesting angle of the picture, without interfearing glare from the lights, was proving more difficult than we had time to solve. It may or may not be the *best* or *right* way to simply say, "No worries, we have photoshop," but that's what we often do at our magazines here. As far as the background, when the photo ran, that was nearly cropped out. I was actually torn about that - I normally prefer a clean background, but in this case, I kind of liked it.

Thanks for your comments.
