Obviously, I need more work on light placement




Not much more work though, they do look good, and it can't be "easy" - I was at a short tutorial on lighting this week, they said 'high key' should show no visible shadows at all, and okay to be very slightly over-exposed. And suggested top end fashion magazines to see good recent examples. I've looked at the web and can't see any precise information (except general forum-type opinion) - there are some portrait photography books advertised with high-key chapters so will look at those when I can.

The puppy is lovely, have to admit though I cried when I first saw what they've done to his ears, I really had to get past that to look at the lighting.
