Senior Editor Steve Anchell made this photograph using a Mamiya 7 camera with Agfa APX film. Lighting was created in the studio using a PhotoFlex Lite Dome and was further softened with a Harrison and Harrison diffusion filter. The print was made on Cachet Multibrom Plus and, as a final touch, the eyes were hand-colored using calligraphy inks.
