Hey Z! Been really sick. Stil am but a lil better. The process here is cool, but I HAVE to comment on the effect the pose has on composition and balance. I love the dark helmet against your fair back. Also the deep shadow beneath your fingers give them an appearance of digging into the floir as if it is flesh. Given your mutiple talents, by the way, I'd like to know, when you are the model in a photo, how much influence you have on any other apect of the final product.

I thank you for such a beautiful description. I actually have a lot of influence on it, as I involve myself so completely in my art and am sought out specifically for my eye and attention to detail. I'm pleased you enjoy it so much.

Bout time. Lol! jk. I love the black and white effect on this. Tends to be a mood setter! Ironically, my theme of late matches well with this xD Especially if you saw my newest note!

Well they're really cool, because that is the natural effect on the tin types when they're developed. So the creasing and cool texture is what the film catches.
