The reflections in the water are well done, but for me, the most interesting digital art effect is the subtle shading of light in the ladies' hair; it gives the hair an interesting sense of volume, direction and dimension.

Really? =p That was actually pretty easy to do and I didn't think much bout the light's direction.

No no no; as an artist, you should TAKE CREDIT for anything that looks good... even if you have to embellish a bit!

"Ah, yes, this digital technique (the final result of a lifetime's worth of expermimentation at the Heidelberg Institute of Advanced Optical Studies) required that I spend several months observing the effect of late-afternoon sunlight upon two meticulously-positioned wigs near a calm source of water in Southern Africa. Then -- and only then -- was I able to calculate the correct angle, luminosity, and saturation of this effect upon the hair of these two iconic, semi-representational, neo-stylized feminine subjects."
