Here's something completely different from me. I've been busy with my business since taking the head first plunge into full time photography as a primary income. I haven't entered many portraits into challenges and none of them were made using strobes.
I used four strobes with and without softboxes, grids, barn doors, and gels. Again, totally new for me but I have been using them a lot lately for my dance studio photography. This was from my latest dance studio shoot which involved 6 days averaging 5 hours per day. I really enjoyed working with the owners of the dance studio who were as meticulous and as attentive to detail as I am.
They said that they don't simply want the usual posed look of typical dance photos. I think that this is a little different than the norm.

The pose seemed very awkward -- but it could have worked: awkward can be extremely interesting. I think the problem is that her expression seems lifeless. The lighting, the smoke, all the rest is very nicely done. It just needed a little life to it. (6, btw)
