Trying out my new Bowens. Two heads and brollies used, both about 45 degrees from model, one level with her - one above, and angled down.

Taken indoors against a black background.

Still wondering what half the switches on the heads do :- )

Looks nice, might want to pull back on the sharpening some. There are halos around the cuffs of the shirt and I think it's giving the overall image more of a harsh feel than it would otherwise have.

this looks like a nice start with your new lights! her expression is great!

hope you don't mind giving you some tips:

- try to move your light a bit. Right now the light is almost from straight forward (you can see the reflection in the pupils) andthat way you can change the reflection and the atmosphere (shadow / light) in the photo.
- I'm not sure what brollies are, but the light is a bit harsh. If that's what you were after, then it's great, but using a softbox really softens the light and gives more atmosphere.

I hope these were helpful!

This too I think I would like to see in color. A well done b&w conversion but with the fun expression I think color would make it more alive.
