It's hard work doing this kind of shot alone - sometimes a model would be handy but then half the challenge and satisfaction is doing it without any help Smile

This is as taken - well apart from the added Lucisart and texture - there is no way I'm ever going to show you the shot from which this was cropped........

LOL, cropped? i thought these were the mannequin legs. You sacrificed the suitcase for your shot too. Excellent Smile

The mannequin legs have much slimmer calves than I do - I walk a lot so have a decent chunk of muscle on them Smile

The sacrifice was worth it - a big hole cut in the bottom of the suitcase and plenty more pics to be taken yet!

Lots of fun. You really enjoy your photosessions by the look of it, if at times they look like quite hard work. Grin

Marvelous lateral, no, maybe that should be upside down thinking. I love it anyway.

Recognized the suitcase immeadiately !....even without the handcuffs......but I'm struggling to know how you got into the darn thing ??????....& take the shot !.Wink

Loony image, but superb quality....but aren't they all !

I'll have to use my imagination for the 'uncropped' image ????.Grin

Thank you again everyone and thank you Pete for the HC Smile

I've just been doing some more - and yes it can be hard work getting up and down and in and out of the suitcase - hopefully worth it though!

I'm sure I was going to do something useful this afternoon.........

"it's hard doing this kind of work alone".... you're not kidding. It's tricky enough with your eye on the viewfinder.

Where DO you get those ideas from? Can I get a ticket and come with?!?!?

Thanks Katie - and others Smile

This pic is now on my business cards - and postcards - and a tote bag - it looks quite good Smile

Not a clue where the ideas come from but none today- I've been trying to tidy the 'studio' up a bit so I've actually got space to play! As for selling tickets - a very tempting idea........ but I have my pride Smile
