Another attempt at trying a portrait with off-camera flash. Looking for comment on what could be done differently or general thoughts.

    I don't think I would change a thing. You've done a very nice job on this for my tastes.

    It looks great, but curious to see it in colour.

    I like it... Her body freckles almost mimick the wall texture (assuming there natural and not a texture overlay). I kinda dig how her face seems to fade in to the shadow of her hair.

    Thank you all for the kind words... That means a lot to me coming from you guys.

    I lurk a lot here trying to glean what little tidbits of information I can from posts, setups, images and then run off and experiment. I look back at where I started and every once in a while, I pull one off like this. I'm making progress, and I have all of you to thank.

    The color version is, well - colored. I'll say this, those are real freckles and not an effect on her or the background. :-) And she's a flaming redhead who is also an incredibly athletic swimmer. She's got a 10 mile swim in two weeks....

    Very interesting and dramatic. I think the black and white conversion works here very well.
