Etching from copper plate

Over the last week or so I have been working on the copper etching below -Which was based off of one of my photo shoots.

The second image below was then created from the copper plate from above - but then I aquatinted it to give it a bit more definition -- It was the first aquatinting that I have tried. I liked the process but would like to try it a few more times to really get use to it a lil more. I also did a lil bit of dry point on it before printing.
