That's what sorts out boy shooters from the men, by recognizing this kind of light and shooting from the shadow side. Why would you want it not be there? Hell man that's what I've been telling you for months and I knew you had it down, you just hadn't recognized it. Now you can see exactly what happens when you shoot from the shadowside. Just keep watching for this kind of light and your people pictures plus every other subject from the shadowside and your photography will take on a whole new meaning. :-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
