The Sense of Touch

Kyoto

Hot and cold, wet and dry, hard and soft, rough and smooth, pain and pleasure, the sense of touch is the most basic of them all. Before a baby can see he can feel. In love, it's the one that gives us ecstasy. In old age, a gentle touch tells us that someone still cares.

Thanks Jim. Here are some details.
The picture was taken with the model standing in front of a white background using the flash on the Canon 300 D. However, this background turned out to be too gray so I removed it and replaced it with 100 % white.
Then I made a basic B&W outline of the model's body and put this on top of the original image - hard light - in Photoshop. I don't remember the exact settings here but probably around 70 % or something. Merge the layers and adjust saturation, contrast, etc. Finally I used a softening effect action.

Julian. A beautiful image. Can you give me some details, both of the original photo, but also of the post processing? Well done, and right on topic.
