Haha! This photo shoot was interesting cause Chris is just a good friend of mine and he was getting some portfolio photographs taken by me when I asked him to help me with an assignment. It didn't come out exactly as I had planned but it worked out well.
So, yes folks that is me and yes my hair is lighter now and only getting lighter. :)
I got the idea from a photographer off deviant art, I'll have to find the link again and credit them. :)

Dramatic lighting created by very strong winter sunshine against a dark sky background sets off the County Bridge and Castle Ruins.
Powerful figure in dramatic outfit against rich rose background exuding confidence and allure in evening setting
A strong and striking individual poses gracefully in a sleek black outfit featuring a high slit. The vibrant red roses surround her, enhancing the evening atmosphere.
"Queen of the Roses"
Beneath the hush of an indigo sky,
she stands—
a silhouette carved in midnight silk,
the high slit of her gown
a whisper of movement,
a promise of power.
Around her, roses burn in crimson bloom,
petals like velvet embers
against the cool breath of evening.
Their perfume mingles with the air,
a quiet crown of nature’s making.
Dramatic light spills across her form,
catching the curve of her shoulder,
the poised tilt of her chin—
a portrait of confidence
painted in shadow and flame.
Her gaze holds the night still,
commanding without a word,
each line of her body
a verse in the language of allure.
She is elegance in motion,
feminine energy sharpened to a blade,
a showstopper draped in black,
framed by roses that bow
to her presence.
In this garden of vivid contrasts—
red against black,
soft against strong—
she is both muse and monarch,
the evening’s most
captivating secret.

There is something so playful and free about Morgan on two wheels. Her red hair seemed to ignite the frame against the cool blue sky.

Bir Ali is located on the spectacular coast road and it is surrounded by white sand dunes, green rocky mountains and black lava deposits. You can spend your afternoon swimming or relaxing on a white sand beach or spend overnight in beach huts. The surrounding coast is a mixture of volcanic landscape and occasional patches of sand dunes.

Created for my grand daughter. The boy on the flying eagle is her twin brother and I photographed the foreground eagle from the Seneca Park Zoo. The other images portrayed in this image are from Istock.com, adobestock.com and pixelsquid.com. Twelve images total make up this image.
This is one of the individual flowers that were on the plant I brought home yesterday. I also created a black and white version of this image using Nik Software's Siver Efex Pro 2, and you can see that below in the comments.
Lighting stuff: I wanted dramatic, rather than even lighting, so I used my lights accordingly. The main light was a YN560-II in a 24 inch softbox at camera right, and I used a YN560-III hand held in a Rogue grid to light up the orange "bit" (a technical botanical term) growing from the center of the plant. Both strobes, in manual mode, were triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
Other Calla Lily pictures are in my Calla Lilly set. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157626082181550/...
Other plants, flowers, fruit or thingys that I've photographed using strobes can be seen in my Strobe Lit Plant set. In the description for that set, I list resources that I've used to learn how to light with off camera flash. www.flickr.com/photos/9422

the floor becomes a canvas, washed in a strange twilight between departure and arrival. a lone silhouette drags its luggage through purple light, frozen mid-stride like a memory caught between yesterday and somewhere else. the body is absent, but the shape tells the story—movement, weight, solitude. this is the stillness of travel, the echo of steps never heard, the shape of someone who has already gone.

A striking low-key portrait featuring a confident subject illuminated by dramatic directional lighting against a deep black background. Dressed in a bold red halter dress, the scene uses strong contrast and shadow to create an atmospheric, cinematic mood. The lighting sculpts the face and form, emphasizing expression, texture, and elegance while allowing mystery to remain in the darker portions of the frame. The rich red tones stand out powerfully against the darkness, creating a visual balance between strength and sophistication. This portrait explores the interplay of light and shadow in studio photography, capturing a timeless and dramatic aesthetic.

The briefest of bright intervals highlights the wall leading to a tree on the horizon as a fierce squall blows in. Vertical pano, 2 hand held shots, not easy in that wind even with the wall to rest on!
Sometimes, when composing a shot, it's a case of "it's behind you!". While up at Sharpitor, composing a shot looking towards Leather Tor and Burrator reservoir, I looked behind me and saw this view looking Northwest over the moor.

Insects in the family Tettigoniidae are commonly called katydids (especially in North America) or bush crickets. They have previously been known as "long-horned grasshoppers". More than 8,000 species are known.[1] Part of the suborder Ensifera, the Tettigoniidae are the only extant family in the superfamily Tettigonioidea.
Many species are nocturnal in habit, having strident mating calls and may exhibit mimicry or camouflage, commonly with shapes and colours similar to leaves.

Had some fun with a model friend trying to recreate some Audrey Hepburn portraits the other day. This one is my favorite from the day!
This striking low-key portrait captures a warm and natural smile emerging from dramatic studio lighting against a deep black background. The rich red halter-style outfit creates a bold contrast, drawing attention while adding elegance and confidence to the composition. Soft directional lighting sculpts the subject’s features, creating depth and highlighting subtle details in the eyes, expression, and flowing hair.
The minimalist setting allows emotion and personality to become the focal point of the image. The portrait balances glamour and authenticity, combining classic studio techniques with a modern, intimate feel. The use of shadow and selective light creates mood and visual impact while maintaining a soft, approachable atmosphere. A study in portrait lighting, confidence, and expressive beauty.

in black and white, the world fades away. his gaze pierces through the lens, and suddenly it is just him and you. no distractions, no artifice. the contrast of light and shadow carves out his story with precision, the timelessness of the monochrome drawing you in. he doesn’t speak, but you hear everything.

Broadleys Gate farm, near Newbiggin, Teesdale, lit by a brief break in the dark cloud cover.
Had the opportunity to photograph local Bay Area artist, Amiel " Summer Breeze " Maquilan, today. Unfortunately, the weather today was horrible in the Bay Area with lots of rain. So we kept the shoot indoors.
Summer Breeze is a down to earth musician and a pleasure to photograph. I also had a great time shooting with my brother in law, DreamWorldPhotoArt, today. Thanks to the both of you for a fun afternoon. Make sure to check out his music. This kid is very talented.
