From my earliest photo shoot with the lovely and talented Patrice.

LE: Canon 40D. EF-S 18-200 f/3.5 - 5.6 IS lens. 1/250 f5.6 ISO 200.
My Britek strobe is in a med softbox in the room in front of her. I don't recall the exact setting but given the proximity I am guessing the power was rather low.

I built the water portal effect in PS CS4. The background image of Asgard was found on Deviant Art by the artist: "Dan-is-nice"

The rest of the effects are also standard stuff which, when combined, bring life to the image.

I am very interested in constructive critiques!

So far this is my favorite "Post Production" image I have done from the pics I took at Phoenix ComiCon 2011.
I'd love to know your opinion as well!
