Another awesome shot of Derek. Where was the beautiful place that this was taken? Its got amazing lighting. I love his pose, the way his hands are positioned is just power consuming.
for sure!

Ah, Paul.
If you've read my journal by now, I want you to know that you were the one person I thought might be hurt the most and who I would want to hurt the least.
I want you to know that everything I've said about your work was completely true and founded. I think you do the best photography on here, with so much depth and just a bit of carnal lust
And your writing has never ceased to impress upon me the urgency of true thought. I love ya, Paul. I really do.
And I'm sorry for the facade.

this is truly gorgeous. i think it may be my favorite in your entire gallery!!!!
the heavenly lighting is great, the colors are great, the ps work is great, the model, of course...great, the pose, GREAT
so what negative thing can be said? well okay, one thing
i think it would have been more effective if he wasn't wearing his shoes

his face seems so flawless and plastic-like, he looks like a well made maniquin [sp?]...
this is a terribly impactful portrait, though....i love this - for some reason it reminds me of a crucifix - or maybe i'm just seeing what i wanna see...great title and descript, too...just might have ta this one...

Great Photo...I have to ask though, so I know just how jealous to be ...were any of the elements in the photo added in PS?

Derek and the arch behind him are the original elements. The rest was taken from other images and melded together in Photoshop. Darn you for making me tell.

Sorry...I just had to ask...You know I am jealous as all hell that you even get models that look like that...go and throw in that scene with light streaming in from everywhere, and I was just going to have to scream or something.

Gods. This is beautiful. The lighting is just so...heavenly? Most Wiccans don't have patience for this Divine Iitervention stuff, but...
It's gorgeous. How high off the ground was the ledge?

Very nice, love the pose & background...would've been interesting in just his underware or a loincloth maybe?

paul, roninbearz is right. I insist we go back and bring along a loin cloth.
