"Big Guns" Susan

"Big Guns" Susan by ttstam.
Model: Susan C.

Susan wanted to play with the guns. I figured that the biggest gun would be of the most visual interest with her, given her height. I chose my airsoft M4 rifle and fitted it with an underbarrel M203 launcher, and added to it a SOCOM silencer. Then, I got in really close and shot with my super-wide angle lens.

Strobist:

580EX II M1/1 Brolleyed, via PW MM.

I like this. Her look makes it appear like she just fired off a round.

Thanks everyone!

SniperMark: Actually, I had her tilt the gun so that it's framed diagonally to emphasis the length of the gun. But It does add a bit of "motion" to the shot. It must be the grenade launcher that just went off ;-)

The ONE thing I don't quite like about this shot is that Susan's legs are kinda chopped off. She's wearing black pants and they didn't show at all... oh well.

Intresting shot
I like the final result (except for the 'chopped legs' thing).
Thanks for the infos that you put in the description like the lights that you used and the choices about the angle etc, they are very intresting for a rookie like me

This is a great photo. The composition and lighting are wonderful.
The photo makes a statement. I'm not bothered at all by you decision
to make her lower half as dark as it is, it seems to make me focus on the more important aspects of the picture. Well done!

(Sorry, can't really type well in Chinese). At least she didn't fire the grenade launcher ;-)
