Awesome photo, David!! You're right, there is an erotic element to it. One of the first thoughts that came to my mind when I looked at it was "opium den". Okay, I've never been to an opium den, but I've seen movies... <vbg> Technically stunning photo: I love the black background. Lighting is about perfect, IMHO. Composition is on par with the technical bits. It's all very surreal looking. I love this thing!! (not in an erotic way, I assure you). cheers, frank ===== "The optimist thinks this is the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears it is true." -J.
