What a total treat of a day, first this and then a storm. What more could I possibly want? Only another 89 shots to process of 276 shot. That'll keep me off the streets for a while.

Thanks Dave, just for your internal amusement, imagine me trying to demonstrate the way models do that one foot in front of the other thing for that hourglass, elegant, look. Just glad no one was taking pictures of me.

Sorry about that.
On another note, the old magenta background problem. I have taken to creating a levels layer for the model and overlaying a layer for the background and cutting the model out. Most of it can be done by magic wand selection, feathering by about 3 pixels and deleting, just using the eraser for the shadowed areas, usually around lower legs and feet. It has lengthened the processing time considerably but the results are worth it I think.

Examples and just noticed I missed a bit.

Ahh, sorry, should have been obvious. I try to make sure that the one clean area of light, if nowhere else, is behind the head, all other areas are pretty easy to deal with, but not hair.

They are all great, but the hole in the tights (right leg) in the first one is a little distracting, it doesn't fit that image where it does in the rest.

Thanks peteski, yeah I have to agree, 40's punk is a little bit odd.
