Default New Background

The subject wanted an outdoor shot with his bow and arrow. It was raining the day of his session, so I did the next best thing, I faked it in Photoshop. I NEVER use "greenscreen" because it can cause huge problems if any of the green reflects onto your subject. I use a white background as my "greenscreen" as shown below. Shadows from a white background show up as neutral gray like they should.

Default Nice job

I like it. I too have found that the green seems to reflect on peoples hair etc. and looks horrible. I've done a few background changes with the white and find it better too. Not as much as this though, but I may have to play more now after seeing yours.
