Hi all,
A couple of shots of Australian actor Rhett Giles - He is in the series Lost among many other things.
I am out of the country (US) and it's raining outside so I thought I would post up a couple to hopefully get a few comments.
Cheers - Let me know if you like the bus or not - I did some without but just felt it looked good!
Jeff







Thanks for looking.

Me too and me neither. Maybe he is an actor on an Australian version of Lost....like "Lost: Outback" where kangaroos eat people and Kiwis have started a colony there. I dunno.

Lost: Down Under

;)

or wait, maybe he is Ethan? One of the others? The guy that was in the jungle but not on the passengers-list?

He had a role in one episode as "Officer Barnes".

Jeff, massive fan of your work mate. This stuff is excellent as usual..

I think all three are great! If I were forced to pick just one, I think it would be #1. Maybe the bus works better than no-bus because the yellow compliments the blue of the sky? I'm not sure about its distraction-factor, though.

Looks like an umbrella camera left with the sun up right to me.

Hi all thanks for the comments,
Skip - I just used the plain ol softbox to the left of him and at his height - Set to full. Metered for the background to be under exposed by about a stop. As usual all very simple.
Cheers
Jeff
