RE: Has anyone seen Secret Window?
Well, the original post told a story that reminded me of the story in the movie/novella "Secret Window", where an author is approached by a man who claims that the author stole his story. A photographer claimed I stole a photo of his - same pose, same lighting, same toning, and even the same model. Well, I checked with the model and she replied with several unsavory words about the photographer, basically saying that he is more of a predator than a photographer and that she never did any such work with him. It is a standard pose so I'm sure that many photographers have something similar in their portfolio. I am rather proud of it and it is getting great reviews all over the world right now. My 15 minutes are probably about up, though.

Re: Has anyone seen Secret Window?
Whitespace??? Blackspace??? Anyway, I think it's excellent. Love the lighting. Hair curling back over her neck interrupts the curve of her neck. Slightly reduces curving flow from top to bottom. Gives head appearance of being separate from and placed on top of her body and held there with her hands. Then again, that's just me, and I'm certainly no expert. I think it's very, very good.

A friend of mine shot the identical picture as i did of an atrium at the National Museum of Natural History several years after i did without ever seeing my shot. http://pug.komkon.org/03aug/atrium.html -- Christian [EMAIL PROTECTED]
