i've been working on this infrared portrait of Michelle a very long time. she's a new vocalist to the band. i took this image in a very cramped basement with hardly any room to maneuver and horrible lighting. i'm experimenting in doing infrared portraits. this was my very first time to do them other than one or two images i took of kemal. thanks for your honest feedback & suggestions guys!

From what i can tell here at work it looks really great. Hard to make out any details cause of this stupid screen. It hasnt been calibrated and i dont even think they installed the proper drivers for the graphicboard. Ill take another look when i get home...hence i understand that this reply of mine was just a waste of space...but hey...im boooooored, lol. #:O)

How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is supposed to be fire and brimstone?

LMAO@Andreas!! Well, it looks excellent on my screen and it's perfectly calibrated! I love this Sheila!! I think the effect works beautifully here!! Looks like a highkey portrait actually!!

Pascale, yeah, it's a high-key infrared. i also smudged part of her chin because it had some weird-looking shadow that really bugged me. thanks for your feedback girl!! i really appreciate it 'cause i was losing objectivity on this one. :) Andreas, thanks for checkin' it out! :)

Okay, im home...infront of my own sweet screen. And i gotta say it looks really beautiful Sheila. Definitly highkey. Great job!!!! #:O)

thanks, Nikki! :) appreciate your input! :)

I really like it honey.I'm just not liking how her skin looks a bit mottled in the area just before her hair.Maybe there's a way to eliminate that without losing detail?Just my 2 cents...
