- 430 full power with blue gel in umbrella for the wall
- 550 @ full power with blue gel for cross lighting the glitter
- 580 @ full power with green gel, for cross lighting the glitter, but it didn't show up too well, you can see it on her hand
- 64 PLM boomed powered by AB1600 @ just below 1/4 power
- Green seen here, but I like the blue side more than this one. - Garvm
Katie ~ 4 Seasons ~ Magical Winter Wish
this is part 1 of my 4 seasons series..
spring, summer and fall will be coming soon..
i haven't thought up of them yet..
this series is inspired by a great russian photographer Oleg Igorin... he is the man ! and i say he has gained my attention as an industry standard.
this shot was done in a parking garage with 3 speed lights.. and a single alien bee strobe AB1600..
i had the glitter cross lighted by 2 speedlights gelled with blue and green.. the green wasn't showing up too well..
anyways.. it is a project i have been thinking of doing for awhile and hadn't had a chance.. but last night presented it self..
1 speed light in the rear and a shoot thru for the wall and partial side lighting
2 speed lights for the cross lighting..
1 AB 1600 for the key light 64PLM was used.
all speed lights were full power
the AB1600 was just below 1/4 power being it was really close to Katie
lots of glitter was use.. LOL.. really fun shot..

Really well done. That PLM delivers beautiful light doesn't it (rhetorical question - I have the 86"). Background illumination is fantastic - interesting separation. Side lighting adds a lot of detail.
Just a very well composed image.
