 It was like walking on a swords edge trying to get the shot overexposed without making it too high key.
Don't know if I managed it. I checked the image so often, I couldn't really see it any more (if you know what I mean ;-)

Interesting - shades of pale... I think the blowout is just a little too overwhelming, but I like the idea...
