day 63 - the floor skip



this weeks' episode features aiming a strobe at the floor, so that light bounces up off the hard wood and creates a naturally warmed uplight. our floors are kinda dark, so i had to turn the strobe up to full power, and zoom it to 85mm so that it didn't spill a lot of light directly onto the subject.

this composition is interesting to me how it has dark areas within light areas within dark areas.... just the dark/light layers of my face, beard, neck, shirt, sweatshirt, couch..... there's a lot of dark on light on dark going on. maybe that's why i like this shot.
