Sometimes it happens that a photgrapher loses inspiration and simply can't get anything right.

luckily in this case, a beauty of a shot still managed to shine through. Well, I hope everyone everywhere finds their inspiration, or whatever they need to conquer that block.

A wonderful studio portrait. The level of detail here and the tonality is really reminiscent of an oil painting.

Indy 'Salmon', originally uploaded by Jon Stokes.

Fabulous work from a photography student. I really love the imagination and use of the negative space, as well as the use of the light just to show a few scant details on the model.

Excellent lighting technique.
