 This is a Sarah Outtake from the Dec 2009 FS:



Photo specs:
1) done in a liviging a room
2) I used 4 strobes. Two infront at 45 degrees and two behind above her at 45 degrees hitting her head from the right. The two behind her were using a 20 and 40 degree honeycomb grid to isolate the light to her hair.
3) I shot this at F-8 and a shutter of 200 at 100 ISO


Processing techniques used:
1) did levels at each channel (RGB)
2) DId curves to find true whites and blacks
3) did selective Coloring and darkened the reds a little
4) Dodge the face and hair to show more of the lighting on her face and highlights on her hair.
5) dodged the eyes
6) dodged and burned the scarf
7) saturated the hair a little.
8) Burned the background to hide the background
9) Sharpened the eyes

How about sending Sarah to the UK for a holiday? We have lots to offer....rain,rain,more rain and frozen rain this week.

Another captivating shot. The worrying thing is I can now pick your shots out from the challenges, just from the style and lighting. Help I am almost a stalker!
