Lindsey, split-tone #2

Lindsey, split-tone #2 by Ed_Z.
I love these stairs... such a fun backdrop, with so many great angles to shoot from... I couldn't resist shooting with lindsey there as well..

Strobist info: Canon 550ex from camera left, about 30deg angle. fired in ETTL by 580exII on camera

Processing: overall exposure /wb etc... adjusted in Lightroom - roundtripped to photoshop for minor cleanup (clone out dirt/debris on the stairs etc...) then back into lightroom. I used the "cold tone" preset as a starting point and then tweaked the contrast/saturation a bit and added some toning with the split tone sliders. Lastly a mild vignette helped emphasize the light falloff around the edges.

Great photo.
shot from a cool angle.
I also like the processing.
contrasty without too much color.

Indra-
Nope, that is either unmodified or through a shoot-through umbrella (I can't remember exactly now)

Nice mood, the wind in the hair makes for a nice dreamy look.

Indra, seems the flash was unmodified -- look at the hard shadow along her left arm.

edzarts, what is the main light coming from camera left?
