So far I haven't had problems with blown out background. But I will soon. Because now I will start to light it directly. I haven't had tools to trigger more than two flashes so far, but now I have extra triggers, opening up new possibilities. What I've had metering difficulties with so far, is to

I find this one a bit odd. The 50/50 center-of-face light split and the bright spot in the shadowed eye make it look a bit spooky. If a bit of a horror-movie look was your goal, it succeeds. As an attractive portrait it doesn't work for me. On Mar 23, 2011, at 6:25 PM, Tim Øsleby wrote: Meet

I had looked only at the first. I went back to see the rest. I agree in regard to the odd camera positions, as noted by Bruce below, although I think the second shot (first color) is okay in that regard. But I find a bit too dark and oversaturated. On Mar 23, 2011, at 7:20 PM, Bruce Walker
