day 26 - soft above soft below
another exploration into the greatness that is my new 10' boom arm light stand. for this shot i set up a 42" umbrella just above my head, sb-28 through it at 1/8th power. then a reflector pretty much on my lap, angled to guide light softly back up towards my face.
did a bit of color tweaking in lightroom (our light brown walls tend to go a strange hue sometimes) dropped a vignette in there, and that's it. this type of light wasn't dreamed up with me in mind. it mostly just serves to draw attention to the forehead area..... but i still like the shot. i think the lighting is solid, and it has almost an old-timey hollywood feel.
