[QUOTE="STM, post: 123449, member: 12827"] The light is at kind of a rather extreme angle Salman, which creates some deep shadows. She is a very pretty little girl, but these portraits and the heavy shadows are not really flattering to her. Also, in the second one, she has that big clump of hair which creates a big black line right down her face. I don't know if you are using a graphics program like Photoshop, but you can do the same thing by selecting the background, regardless of color, and using the paint bucket tool and black and painting it in. Your background could be LIME GREEN to start and you could easily change it to black, or any other color. With a little work in layers and FX, you can even change it to a light gray which fades to black. [/QUOTE]
