it's always something right Eric.... :rolleyes: now pack a nice light aluminum ladder in your kit too; one that entends about 6 feet in the air, has a flat area to rest a laptop, beverage, or makeup kit :)

Yeah, my wife's gonna freak when I tell her the I need a new Excursion Power Stroke with a trailer and a generator, to power the lights and haul the ladders! :)

In the second image you can see the direction that the light is coming from and with the light coming from camera right and the model having her eyes turned fully to her right, the catch light would fall on the white of the eye and typically you won't see a catch light against the white part of the eye. If she turned her head and/or eyes then the catch light would fall on the pupil or iris.

yeh and that makes total sense. i just was looking for a confirmation

Yessir, no processing or removal of catchlights was done to the eyes. I agree that it may have been a bit too extreme of a glance, theres just a little too much white showing.

Or in that other "little" car! But, I once saw the whale tail being used as an impromptu table, so maybe? :)

I may be traveling to a shoot in it end of next month; possibly to use in the shoot too.

Mine carries a ton! 9 ft seamless roll, big case of lights, softboxes still assembled and then some. :cool:

Yeah, that's right, I remember that I helped you put a full roll of seamless in there...

^Nice shots, Peter! The light looks very natural and she's an attractive model, too! Great work!

Looks great Peter. I think the second shot would have benefited from pulling back a bit so the model doesn't look like she's breaking out of the frame. :D
