FYI, men in various stages of undress don't do very well at DPC (trust me, I tried...it's my lowest scorer but has the most views and comments)...

But I like to see them. So practice the lighting and keep 'em coming! :P

Comment by magnus:
Good idea and the pose works well too, but the harsh shadows on the wall ruin the effect for me. If you use on-camera flash for portraits like this then you have to either light the background separately (do drown the shadows) or have the model stand so far in front of the background that the flash doesn't reach.

outch the shadow kills. Use a bounce flash or place fine tissue over the flash to soften. Well that is of course it is was not intentional.

Comment by JunieMoon:
I would have recommended just cropping to above the nose because the head cast a shadow on the wall behind. Your subject should be standing at least 6 feet if not 8 feet away from the backdrop to prevent shadows. Also, a little directional light to the background only would have also calmed down the shadow.

Comment by pamelasue:
harsh lighting really hurts this ... consider moving your subject about 4-6 feet away from the wall to avoid the hard shadows ...
