Wonderful documentary! I said it before but I just love your family life illustrations, you are always spot on! It is staged, yes, but that does not matter. The emotions, how the viewer relates to your stories. These images are great!
/Thomas
Ilja Hackman  Thanks so much, Thomas! :)
Really glad to hear!
And I really have to thank you again for the tutorial you gave me about layer masks, they are proving to be priceless tool for my work flow.. :)
Thomas Ljungberg  Layer masks, one can not live without them... You are most welcome, I'm glad you found it helpfull.
