*cough* 341 frames *cough* Head & shoulders, half-body, 3/4-body, full-body, standing, twirling, crouching, dancing, roaring, sultry ... well it was a workshop. :-) I'm still selecting the 4- and 5-star shots. But I plan to have a marathon PP/retouch session on the weekend, so you should see some more of her and Elle next week. I owe some retouched TF shots to the models and MUA. If you're interested, that is. There aren't many studio photography fans on the PDML. -- -bmw -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
