Dropping Backgrounds Makes for Better Portaits Than A Muslin Sheet

I love the digital era. When I operated my portrait studio in Tacoma WA I used sheets and rugs for back drops even though rear projection was available but costly and certainly not as real as some diligent time at the computer can provide. There are a lot of legal backgrounds out in the web especially on CD's sold on e-bay. I also did portraiture in the home starting out with Olympus PenF Half Frame 35mm cameras. I took this portrait at a company event using an 18% grey muslin sheet as a backdrop, lifted Tami out of one layer and onto a second photo from a old tyme theatre broadbill which is on a CD I bought off of e-bay
