This is my first posting on in my Recent Favorites section on my new website.  Periodically, I update this blog to highlight some of my favorite pictures.  In most cases, I will try to explain why the picture is a favorite of mine.  I like the crisp feeling, bright colors and the very clean, non distracting background of this picture.

To generate an image like this requires 1-2 stop brighter lighting to a clean white background (paper or vinyl) over the front lighting along with shielding the lights from the backlights so they don't add light directly to the subjects.  This was one of several 100 images generated for a new website www.sarisandthings.com
