Lighting

Single broad light source at 60 deg. Awkward pose and shadow over face create interest.

Gutsy use of hard rim lighting for a surprising silhouette.

Mid-high beauty dish? Or soft box with flags?

Simple two or three light setup. High fill, kicker high to the far left. Great shape and texture. John F. Kennedy by Yousuf Karsh 1960 www.metmuseum.org...

High gridded beauty dish? The shadow on her collar bone makes me think it's not too big of a light source.

Light sources in background. Silhouette. Hard rim light. George Shearing, NYC, New York, ; HERMAN LEONARD,

Way cool low key. Gridded light on face, rim light is probably the same light on the background. Maybe another light for the hand and skateboard detail. Pat Duffy, Photo by Shigeo from Transworld Skateboarding

Hard light straight at her face with sun opposite.

Harsh, high light. Flagged on the sides. Tight background halo.

Simple textured light gives a cool effect.

Backlit by sun? Reflected fill light?

This light looks like a huge softbox. Subject looking just past the edge of the light source. Interesting simple hand pose.

I'm amazed he gets so much out of the flash through the sheet.

Powerful flash, wide aperture, neutral density filter. This takes some expensive equipment but the look is phenomenal.

This is the year that I want to try to photograph high school gymnasium sports with sweet lighting.

That texture is entirely due to aggressive side lighting. This would be fun to try. It would be good to practice, because I imagine this taking me several attempts to get the exposure levels correct. At first glance it looks under exposed, but to capture the detail, this is probably dead-on.

The sharp detail and the fine high lighting on the side give this pic so much depth.

Another from Andrew Litsch. He's killing it with small strobes. This lighting shouldn't be tooo hard, but I've never tried.

Impressive that he can get this light out of speedlights.

Before long I'm going to need to pick up a couple more powerful strobes. This is a Einstein w/ Beauty Dish Behind camera.
