love the candle - and the shadow on the wall. Maybe she could be a lil closer to the candle? Looks great tho. I'll bet she has beautiful eyes and that you tried a bunch of different poses. Good Job

What a beautiful and dramatic black and white contrasting scene. Makes me wonder what weighs so heavily on her mind. Excellent work. :0)

Whoo-hoo!!!! spectacular capture, Jim!!! so full of drama, mystery & tension!!!!!!! and hats off to Leslie! she did a FABULOUS job there!!!!! ok, now i understand you were playing with grain but how the hell did you get this to look so sensational with an ISO of 800????????? we have the same cam, and i know when i use an ISO of 200 my images are just useless cause they're nothing BUT grain!!! i see you used minimal postwork. what am i doing WRONG Jim????? Please tell me the secret!!!!!!!! :) Congrats on this fabulous capture! i LOVE that shadow by the way!
