@Stef67: i am glad you like Stef....especially as i know and understand, that pictures like this one, with such symbols, can be a bit controversial for some of us around the globe .....

Beautiful lighting!

@Shar: Thank you :-)

Brett from McAllen, United States

Great composition. I love the light and shadows, and the contrast between the cross and skin. Did you use natural light or did you light it from the side with artificial light?

7 Mar 2009 3:28pm

@Brett: Thank you, Brett...
i have used regular flash studio light with about 3`x 3` softbox to get this light. It`s eaiser for me to move flash light than move model if i would use natural light for this type of picture...

The Big Guy from Regina, Canada

Never a truer word spoken. Well said and well done...

A magnificent statement. You are a philosopher as well as a photographer. Bravo, Denis!

@Steve Rice: :-) i wouldn`t call myself philosopher, but thank you Steve :-)

Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States

Ahhh - sweet fuzz beneath the crucifix - patently unfair to a fellow photographer - thousands of kilometers away - sitting alone in his studio. Sigh...

7 Mar 2009 10:51pm

@Stephen Phillips: But Stephen....you say unfair....with your magician trick of pooof :-), just in one small trick and you sitting aside me, in my studio and we can do together :-)).

Lindsay from North Carolina, United States

Expression in art. Beautifully done.
Superb light and shadows. I like the presentation.

@Barbara: Thank you, Barbara. I am glad you like this picture....

Lindsay from North Carolina, United States

I slept wonderful...to much of a pretty day to stay asleep. Got the meaning on this one...just needed some fresh eyes. You should have thrown a gas tank in there too...cause anymore that seems to be the reason of war. :) People are to greedy when they should be blessed with the air they breathe.

8 Mar 2009 5:01pm

@Lindsay: Thank you Lindsay. Good to hear you slept gooood and loooong.
Yes..gas tank would be good too...but from history point of view gas means nothing, it`s just case of last few decades... :-). An di agree with you....they should
