I love the light and the shot but I'm not diggin' the Photoshop lens flare.
Is that because you know its photoshopped or because you just dont like it in the shot?

It's the appearance of the flare. It appears unnatural and looks like it was added. Rather than say it doesn't look real, because that may not be the intent, I'll just say that I don't care for the effect and think the flare in the upper left actually draws me eye to it and away from the lovely lady's belly and the fact that she is the subject.

Her eyes really pop! My g/f's idea, we kind of shared putting it together. Single 580 ex fired bare just off camera right. ![]() Jen tub "Hey, hon, just hold on a second. Don't move, don't do anything. Just stay put. I just have to adjust my lights for a second. It won't take long. Oh shoot, my ISO is wrong. Gotta fix that too. Maybe I should move this light stand back a little more. And raise the other light up so I don't get a reflection on the faucet. Don't move, just hang on a few seconds longer." LOL Eric
