hey, thanks for voting! I shouldn't have given LoST 8 points.... ;-)

the picture was taken in a room of "Le Meridièn" in Vienna. Cedric and the light are both standing in the bathroom, the front and the door where out of frosted glass. it also reflected lots of light to his face, that's why I had to decide if I want to have more light in the face or to remove that "alien arm" ;-) so I decided for the arm, kind of looks cool, I think. and another (small) light source was the window, the curtain was a little bit open, but only to have very few light on cedric's left side/front. post processing wasn't much: cropping, turning around, unsharp mask and curves, and a bit more saturation. actually, I hardly got such pictures straight from out of the camera, so I was really lucky. :-)))
