Then came the photo. I haven't used my 50mm much lately, so I was hell bent on using that. I came up with a composition I liked, so next was the lighting. I used a single flash shot through an umbrella. The flash was camera right, just a little higher than the camera and slightly pointed down. I used the built in diffuser to really spread out the light.
