This is a picture of Dawn from a photo shoot I did today. This picture originally had four inch pink dots on the grey background, but the census was that the background didn't fit well, so I got rid of the pink dots, leaving the gradient gray background.

Those eyes(!) and her expression seem to demand the viewers attention. Great shot!
I admit I hadn't paid much attention to the background until it was gone. I agree, it's better without :)

AWESOME! Pefectly toned background for this model, Paul - you've really nailed it, now! Tremendous work! :)

Okay Ron and Patrick, I agree that the four inch pink dots in the background look distracting, so I removed them. Hopefully you'll like this version of the picture better! :)

I’m with Vixy on this one. I agree with everything already said. I love the model and color, not too crazy about the 70’s-ish background…. Still a nice shot.

This one definitely gets my vote for 12.13, Paul. What a gorgeous image! The skin tones are amazing, the model's expression is sassy and provocative (LOVE that raised left eyebrow!!), and her eye color is simply beyond reality. :) I'm not loving the background - as it tends to distract from the simple, stunning beauty of this model - but that's an awfully small nit to pick in such a fabulous shot. Kudos, Paul - you're the reigning master of these shots!
