Yousef,

Great technique. Excellent result!

I especially like your attention to the lighting in the first image; beautiful colour, composition and clarity; creates a spectacular photograph. May I ask what was used for the background and other details in regard to the lighting setup.

Hi Craig,
Apology for my late reply. As for the background i used a a dark brown colored fabric & i spot a small tourch into the mid. As for the lights which been used in the setup.. I'm using two white lamps on both sides for lightning.
Hope this is answering your question.


ChrisR,
Yep it was :wink:
I kept it for two days in my studio.. once I finished I released it :D
As for the studio it isn't that big.. the dims are 60cmX60cmX60cm i believe


Sonyalpha,
Thank you.. appreciate your wrods :D

I believe such images would qualify as "fine art photography".

Excellent work!
