Hi Brian and Jeremy.

You guys may remember these. They were done straight after the release of Jeremy’s book.

These ones I have done recently. Am happy with the overall play of light and colours.

the Simpsons versions of Jeremy Birn’s book cover are hilarious!!! :smiley:
I bought that book years ago, and each time i looked to that image, i admired the technical achievement and stunning example of lighting, a clear inspiration for me in those days… now i have a laugh also!!
And they are pretty good btw.:thumbsup:
