Also, tipping the woman and man together instead of the woman's head tilting away from the man. Last, focus on the woman's eyes instead of the man's behind. Last to your specific point, if you had a tripod then you could have dropped down an aperture or so and held both in focus. The images obviously were an effective session for you. Good work!

This week's PAW, and a few other images, come from a session I did last Friday. I wanted to shoot at ASA 800 and 1600 so I did some TriX pushed one and two stops and Neopan 1600. Here's the PAW image: <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004PAW/Wk4-Mela.jpg> It is Neopan 1600 in XTOL, 20C, 14.5 minutes agitation every 2 minutes. (Thanks!) Here are some other images from the shoot: <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-02-R8-Mary.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-02-R9-Mela.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-13-R9-Mela.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-30-R6-Mela.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-35-R9-Mela.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-37-R9-crp-crv-spt-s hrp.jpg> <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/TriX1600-Mary.jpg> This was a failure I definately wanted to have work but I couldn't find a way to make the light work and I couldn't get sufficient depth of field. <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-MandM/NeoP1600-10-R7-failure.jpg> I'd clearly like suggestions/advice on how to do this better.
