The image was shot on a white background and extracted using Quick Selection & Refine Edge tools in PS CS5.
I think the lighting is too even for this shot. Should have shot with some shadow to make it more believable.

I had an absolute blast going to Rhode Island Comic Con for the first time. Yes, even with the crowds and the unfortunate parts, like some people I was looking forward to seeing not being able to get in, it was a lot of fun. My crew and I got into all of the panels we wanted to (Eliza Eliza Dushku is amazing funny, and a badass, William Shatner is a hoot and as unpredictable as you'd expect, Nichelle Nickols aka. Lt. Uhara is very inspriring, etc.).
Look out for my next album from the costume contest which I should be putting up in the next few days!

Rosecliff, built 1898-1902, is one of the Gilded Age mansions of Newport, Rhode Island, now open to the public as a museum.
It was built by Theresa Fair Oelrichs, a silver heiress from Nevada, whose father James Graham Fair was one of the four partners in the Comstock Lode. She was the wife of Hermann Oelrichs, American agent for Norddeutscher Lloyd steamship line. She and her husband, together with her sister, Virginia Fair, bought the land in 1891 from the estate of George Bancroft, and commissioned the architectural firm of McKim, Mead, and White to design a summer home suitable for entertaining on a grand scale. With little opportunity to channel her considerable energy elsewhere, she "threw herself into the social scene with tremendous gusto, becoming, with Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish and Mrs. O.H.P. Belmont (of nearby Belcourt) one of the three great hostesses of Newport." [2]
The principal architect, Stanford White, modeled the mansion after the Grand Trianon of Versailles, but smaller and reduced to a basic "H" shape, while keeping Mansart's scheme of a glazed arcade of arched windows and paired Ionic pilasters, which increase to columns across the central loggia. White's Rosecliff adds to the Grand Trianon a second storey with a balustraded roofline that conceals the set-back third storey, containing twenty small servants' rooms and the pressing room for the laundry.
Attorney John R. Grasso is admitted to practice law in Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and the Federal District Courts, and is a member of the Bar of the United States Supreme Court.

The RICC costume contest was great fun this year. Boston's Deadpool was a hilarious host and the judges Bellchere, Destiny Nickelson, Jonny Ruckus, and Abby Fellows did a great job!
