Wonderful photo, Terry! It's hard to imagine these being so tiny in real life. I love your subject, the composition, lighting, detail, colors and DOF! What do you think of the Lowel Ego studio light?Cathy :) #361233
Terry L. Ellis December 18, 2005
Thank you so much, Cathy! Your comment really means a lot to me right now. If I knew what I was doing, I would love it! LOL! Seriously, it's pretty great for the money. I also bought the little kit that has different colored background papers and a stand, so you can set-up a little studio. It's so easy to move the light, or use the reflector that's included. Really a lot for the money. #2198077Pamela Shane December 19, 2005
This is fantastic Terry - I wouldn't have known they were that tiny either.Terry L. Ellis December 19, 2005

Great shoes, Terry! I think KK just wants to get you on the trampoline so you'll break your neck and she can steal the shoes :-) #2218671Terry L. Ellis December 23, 2005
Steve, you're probably right! That kk can be so devious! LOL! That's hysterically funny! #2218783Kathleen K. Parker December 23, 2005
Terry, an elf whispered in my ear that "someone" (see above) said that I wanted you to break your neck on your tiny trampoline as you jumped in these teeny stilettos! Gee, it is Christmas time. I can wait! ;-PTerry L. Ellis December 23, 2005
