Tiia- What may not be the ideal subject for most to take pictures of, you show your eye for looking at things that many of us would not see. The black background is perfect to enhace the beauty and colors of the picture. When you study the skin and the different textures you find it to be most fasinating and beautiful The different features make it an EOD wonder.Tiia Vissak August 08, 2009
