  Thanks so much everyone for your comments on this photo. It is one of my favourites from the photo session that I had with Benson months ago.

Lynn...the details of the shot are as follows -

Aperture Priority - f5.6
Focal Length - 120mm
ISO Rating - 100

The photo was taken outdoors in full shade (verandah of friends house) with a white sheet stuck to the wall behind. I sat Benson on a table that also had the sheet covering it. The table was about 6 to 7 feet from the wall so that the creases and wrinkles would not show on the final image...I hate ironing as it is and a sheet I was just not going to attempt, lol.
The lighting was just the available light - no flash used.

Original colour image is in my gallery...I like the B&W version just as much.

Cheers,
Janine.
