It's Bill Robb's photo, not mine. Single catch lights are nice here,
but so are the doubles. It's an easy switch.

Hope it's OK, I posted this, Paul. I'll delete it again shortly.

To me this is not a rule, that must be obeyed.
It simply make the photographs more subtle, balanced and adds
"credibility"
to the picture.
In other words, it simply looks better.
Especially a small "mirror imgage" in the eyes of person showing an
umbrella, isn't very pretty. Of cource, that's just my opinion.

I agree. This is surely one of those rules that are made to be broken.

In recent years I've seen quite a few fashion shots with double catch
lights. It's not necessarily a bad thing. I kind of like it, and I'm
guessing Bill does as well. Extra twinkle :-).

IT's very nice. But I still think there's too much "yoghurt-look" to
the
skin tone. This may or may not disappear, when printed, depending on
which
paper is used. The "whiteness" of a computerscreen is not really the
best
for B&W photographs.
One more thing. It is considered approppriate for portraits only to
hav
ONE
white spot in the eyes. I'd choose to remove one of them. This
photograph is
certainly worth it.
All the best

This is mostly just farting around with a picture, but see what you
think.
