Self portrait (sorry I don't have a test babe or hunk...) Ignore the awful clothing coordination, just taking pics between week ending con calls....

two lights, both umbrella, SB800s triggers w/ PW. Main on camera left at 1/4 power, fill behind camera right also at 1/4 (but 3x as far away)

looking for all criticism! Thx...

    Well, let me who has never done a SP speak first!rolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gif
    Nice job, and you look comfortable, not easy I would imagine. Nice job.

    My biggest nit is the little bit of chair back we see, not enough to keep IMHO.

    Hey Tim,

    Good on you my friend. :D
    The last time I tried a SP, I broke the lens!rolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gif

    My only nit is that I would prefer more contour detail on the right side of you face. It looks a little flat. Maybe dial down the camera left light?ne_nau.gif

    I also agree that the chair back is a little distracting.

    We need to get together for a hockey shoot or a beer, or bothmwink.gif
