Forum Competition #192: Windows

Re: “Sharpness is a bourgeois concept.”

I'll win loads of competitions if blur is the norm :lol: Anyway... I was watching a documentary about photographer Bob Gruen ( photographed various rock stars and was John Lennon's favoured photographer).

Re: Model attire (just out interest)

Good to know, thanks gents :)

When the more experienced among you work in the studio, do you decide on the model's clothing/costume (or lack of in the case of glamour ;-] ) or do they provide their own selection.
