This is fantastic! Syyd, you're a great subject for photographs - those dark eyes and hair create some wonderful contrasts. I really like this photo a lot! Hugs, Brandi

Did you add that reflection spot to Syyds eye? Would be nothing without it. Strange, sleepy pic. These slow pics are fascinating almost every time. Modified truth.

Antoonio. There is no post work done on this pic. Apart from a small crop, it is straight out of the camera. I was experimentig with slow shutter speeds and flash combined. I asked Syyd to move her hands and arms while I took the pic.

As they say but it arrives it is an experience very surreal, evidently you used a very low speed to have the movements of the fingers of Syyd, like experiment is very valid.
