 I\'ve never done serious work in portraits, so I don\'t expect this one to score even average. Took this one of my husband while he was watching tv in the evening. Put an old piece of foam behind his head, put my camera on the tripod and clicked away. Light is coming from two hanging lamps, one above and one in front.

Editing:
Cropping, a bit of NI, darkening, sharpening and a bit of flash lightening. Took one tiny light spot out of the dark area.

It was fun to do, but not quite my style.

The background is a bit distracting, and I think the face could be lit a bit more.

i assumed burning was used to create the vidgnetting effects, but it's a little weird on the person's hair (top right), thought I cant really point out why.
