No, although I like that floor.

In the original, I love the way the negative spotlights darken the floor 
around her legs and feather off . Like a blast of black spray paint. But 
the -spotlights don't do much for her herself.

That's what I've been trying to get rid of. ;-)
It does look dramatic, though. The effect would add another dimension to 
Mark Slone's December 2002 IRTC entry, "Innocent Shadow".

I agree, it was just the last scene I had been working on. It was 
already set up.
