Black on black

Eastern Flavour :

Black-on-black and a bit of hair strand drawing.

As for a general recommendation:
Do whatever the hell you want !
My life long experience (70+ years) of people is that they don't know what they want.
Give them an image and the comment is: " I would want it this way."
So you do that and when they get what they want ... they want something else - in eternity.
So do what the hell you want - as you want it.

It looks beautiful, stylish!

It's impossible to please people and to make it right for them --- this will drive everyone crazy in the end.
So yes, of course, do what you want :)

Thank you, Nena.  :)
My little "rant" was aimed mostly at freshers - if any.
I've been dealing with AD's in my work as a photographer and there's a reason why I refuse to do commissions ...

It's ages ago, I was building homepages for money and I got a good deal from an author.
Beside the job we became friends, that was the good thing, otoh it made work more complicated.

She wanted a special blue, powder soft light sky blue.
Go figure!
Not one blue was the right one for her and I used any soft blue color code that I could come up with.
Writing down every code, or I would have got lost.
I ended with the freaking first blue for the page, only that she didn't know, but I, cause I had the codes in front of my nose.

Impossible to satisfy all and everyone with the first try. It's like people need to complain or come up with "but I would like bla bla bla" only to accept in the end the first thing you've presented to them.

Do I know about it ..?
Umpteen changes and remakes/reshoots.
Just to finally land at a slightly cropped version of the first take.
Go figure ...

You know, how to keep a blonde one busy?

Give her a piece of paper, on both sides written: Please turn around  :D
