 Well this is a pretty simple shot that was my wife's idea and I thought it turned out pretty well. Granted I liked it better when it was red but being that the challenge was purple it had to go. Setup was pretty simple, a red ribbon on a black shirt lit by my 420 bounced off the wall. Very little post processing: shot in jpeg, cropped, levels, brightness/contrast, hue/saturation, sharpened a little, usm, resized, save for web.

It's hard to beat purple and black. I enjoy the richness of your purple and the corresponding message - it all goes well together.
