Subdued Narratives

beautiful...love your processing...would like to have seen a little more separation of the model from the b/g but that is just personal taste

Not trying to step into a s***storm, but if I were the OP, I too would be offended if I were asked to produce a composite image instead of what he has posted. Too many images I see and too many photography magazines encourage composite images and over processing. I love these images, and on my calibrated screen I can see enough separation. There is too much image manipulation in today's 'photography' it's turned into graphic design.
