Part of a series from a recent shoot for a local auto dealer. I was setting up the lighting for this shot and somehow completely missed the object that really does NOT belong in a "Meet your mechanic" photo....

Fortunately I did notice and remove it eventually, and NO, Dan is NOT someone who likes having his photo taken!

[tirediron]

Businesses don't sell product anymore. They do social issues and donate profits.

the banana DOES add a certain appeal, or a-peel, to the image. You might be able to sell it to more customers that way. How about thinking about adding visual effects to the background to sell more copies than just the main subject ?? hahahaha
