Lens: Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM II
Location: Jhb South Africa, lounge studio

 Sister-in-law shot with 3 lights. Same shoot as Duotone challenge.

Lighting is a speedlight with Pringles chips tube as a snoot onto grey BG about 5 foot behind model. Studio light directly behind model aiming at camera as hair light. Third light is softbox about 2-3 foot above and 2-3 foot in front of model to camera right. I can only guess the light on the models chin to camera left is reflected light from a white table we had a few feet in front of her with a mirror on it so she could see her pose and hairstyles between shots.

Ok... It's time for me to visist and learn some lighting tricks from you. I am not one to spend much time with all these things but I am curious enough to want to play just a little and experiment. Maybe with time I will grow in to this type of work.. :)
Good strong finish in a FS with portrait. A different pose/comp on this type of work and Im sure there's ribbons on the way.
PS - I think Im in the mood for Pringles..
