Happy Ramadan!
The Night of Power, The Night of Destiny.
For those who don't really know, Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. It is the Islamic month of fasting, in which participating Muslims refrain from eating, drinking and sexual activities from dawn until sunset. Fasting is intended to teach Muslims about patience, humility, and spirituality. It is a time for Muslims to fast for the sake of Allah and to offer more prayer than usual. During Ramadan, Muslims ask forgiveness for past sins, pray for guidance and help in refraining from everyday evils, and try to purify themselves through self-restraint and good deeds.

Okay, this one took about 24 hours, both shoot and PP, doesn't include rest and sleep :). I and the trigger had a World War.. again. I think I'm over it. I need to replace it with the PC Cords soon :(. I planned this shoot a month ago, and really got encouraged when I finally found the invitation for an Art Exhibition on the web last week, themed "Ramadhan". Just to give them the best I could, here it is. The Exhibition is gonna take place in the Middle of Ramadhan, in a few Malls here.
Note: I notice on some monitors this image appears to be a little darker.
Strobist info: A Yongnuo 460 II @ 1/4 into DIY Softbox — Camera right.
