 This was shot using my new hotlights at my church. It was originally meant for my Religion challenge, but I already have my submission that will be used for the DPL, and was going to enter it anyway for myself, but lost track of time and didn't submit it. Hope it does well, this is a new type of portraiture for me.

I like the line around the face and hands...outstanding.

Remember photography is a feeling.

But don't use your out takes for free studies :-p~~~~

I have always liked a silhouette photo. This image says so much I can’t even put into words.

I think this would have been better from a lower perspective to rid the woman of that front pew silhouette.
