Sorry, i missed reading that; in that case you can think about making one of them your display image replacing the present one, which gives you a wrong get up of oldness

wow looks great!

Thanks

I really like number 2

Should try it with the nice wood walls in that room in the first pic! I think that would have made a great backdrop

That wall is actually my handmade garage doors in the workshop

Musta missed this on the first round. Nice work Chito.
It seems you have a pretty good handle on the lights purpose, position and ratio. Well done.

Thank you sir, I dont think I will ever be a Benji or Ernst but Im sure I will find my style

Well, they are certainly two worth trying to emulate. I think the hold period is just about up for Benji's CC orders on the new book. Gonna be a late X-mas or early tax return gift to myself.

Ernst is a good friend and Im hoping to sneak in and assist on a few of his shoots in the next few weeks. Nothing like watching a master to help learn
