Intersting comment Drew. My intent is that which sin is which should be subtle. What you percieve to be sharp blending is backlighting. In fairness you need to see a print to appreciate.
The image is a finalist for the 2008 Lichfield Award.
7 deadly sins is a great concept for a shoot. Looks like you've worked hard on it here though IMOH I think the image would benefit if it was blended a bit better (not so severely "cut-out") and we could see clearer each sin in the shot... but overall a great effort :)
Seriously tho' your imagination is running riot with these images,well done to you and your models
