Felt a little narcissistic tonight...

Now that I've got a 4 light setup with 2 baffles/reflectors, my studio is starting to infuse me with ideas...
Untouched:

and in B&W:

Shot at 400ISO, 1/45th, f/5.6

And now for something a little processed half'n'half (saturation, desaturation, and USM)

    I find the creases in the backdrop really distracting

    Really? I kinda like them...

    I'll iron it the next chance I get. I need to find a better way to hang it than the solution I have right now.

    I need to get cheap backdrop stands. I *could* just order a manfrotto one, but even 238.99 - employee discount = still roughly one of my paycheques.

    Thanks for the look!

    Oh, right. Yeah. Agreed! I was planning on Gaussi'ing the backgrounds on the first two shots anyways. I just couldn't decide *what* to do to them. The last one, I saw exactly what I wanted before I even started.
