What! (Day 16), originally uploaded by Tj6106.
Tonight I wanted to try separating a black material from a black background with light. So I chose the hat and used black cardboard stuck to the wall to achieve this and I think I managed it.
I used a snooted speedlite above and behind me to give the definition at the back and the shoot-through umbrella to give the lighting for the face and front of the hat.
Well this is my last strobist shot for a week. I head out to Boston tomorrow morning for a business trip and don't get back till Saturday. So it will be a week of iPhone photos. So don't worry I will still be posting away.
As always comments/suggestions/critique welcomed.
