Jillian has always been my number one model. We've shot many many times and had become friends. She has always been up for any screwball ideas I'd come up with. In this shoot, I wanted to do a series that was lit from below. I had several glass sheets that were a full 1-inch thick and could take my weight (I'm over 200 pounds). I mounted one of the sheets on 2 sawhorses and put the lights below to get these shots. Later, I had them printed on metal.

I like the warmth of the light of this figure. The photos are tastefully done. The reflection on the glass is a plus. When I first saw the top picture, I thought it was an intriguing landscape, until I saw it enlarged. Not sure if the texture adds to the image. I may have erased some of the vertical line appearing towards the right on each of the images.
I like how you have controlled the light in the images. I am attracted to the lighter parts and when I start to leave, the black sends me back to further explore the image. Well done!
