 Based on this painting. During some rainy days over the holidays I did some Kelby Training courses with Joe McNally & read a lot about renaissance art.

This shot was combining the 2 experiences. Hard to find a temple in downtown Sydney so had to do with the front of the Mitchell Library in Macquarie Street.

Shot with ebay triggers attached to a Di866 Flash with a grid attached.

Many thanks to Sophie the model who was glad to get some extra wear out of her halloween costume & Harriet the VAL (voice activated lightstand) who put up with a few crazy stares from the public leaving the Library.

Processing was crop in LR and lightly layered a few PhotoTools filters in PS. Enhanced the eyes a little and finished off with some NI. Resize & save for web.
