Two of my lovely daughters trying out their modeling skills for me. No ear drums were injured in the making of this photo!
We had to stop before I was really happy with the photos since my youngest said her mouth was hurting from opening it so wide to pretend to the scream. Funny thing, it never seems to hurt when she screams for real ;)
Lighting: Two umbrellas with speedlights, camera left and right about 45 degrees.
Hair: My wife was using the removable motor from my shopvac, which is a pretty powerful blower (you can use it as a leaf blower). The blower was just out of frame, low at camera left in front of the screamer so it wouldn't affect her hair.
Fairly simple processing.

Woohoo! My first ribbon, a blue at that and a new PB that destroys my previous by over .7. I have to say, I have been watching this one all week, I couldn't believe how great it was doing.
I love the idea, and the photo was very well done. The expression on the younger girls face is perfect! She really looks angry and frustrated at not being heard. I also find it interesting how you got the older girls hair to fly up, but the younger ones hair to remain untouched at all. This is definitly one of the better entries!

Gets a 10 from me, I can almost feel the anger coming from the smaller child trying to be heard. The expression and movement in the hair if the older girl is brilliant and overall this image resonates with me to greater depths than the rest.
Can you hear me NOW!
