Forsaken

    Today I had a fun day with a few mates and some other photographers on a workshop run by Daniel Linnett from SPW. The workshop was on studio lighting and we had two fantastic models to work with.

    This is Rev.... Rev has some amazing ink on him and was a blast to photograph. This is the first of a few images that I'll be posting from today.

    I just posted a tutorial on my post processing on my blog site. You can get to it by clicking this link

    I'll also cut together video of the workshop and post it on my blog later this week.

      Perfect choice for B&W ... suits the character well ;-)

      Great shot Brent, agree with Chis, it looks good in B&W. I like the glint in Rev's eye.

      Unaminous. Definitely B&W. Great dramatic lighting and tonality.

      Great portrait, lots of feeling and suits B&W so the ink doesn't distract but adds to the image and gives it a gritty feel.

      Insanely good portrait Brent!
      Superb lighting and B&W treatment.

      You nailed this one. PP is fantastic. Texture really adds to the shot and the eyes have taken on a really sinister look.

    21. N-Q (22 months ago | reply)

      Wow, what a shot!

      Great image. Rev looks a real character and that comes partly from him and partly from the rapport you had in creating this image.
      Nice!

      Someone really made a mess of this poor fellow. Cool? Character? No, just a bit lacking.
