An example of using a large source very close to a portrait subject. I like the drama that is also provided by the unfilled shadow areas.


Model: Lou
Camera: Leica R6
Lens: 90mm Summicron
Film: Ektachrome 64
Lighting: Profoto flash head in a 40 by 50 inch softbox.

Originally made as a teaching example for a course in cinematic lighting I did in conjunction with Steve Mimm's Austin Filmworks workshops. Circa: the mid 1990s.

    Oh how I cherish the days of Kodachrome, especially Kodachrome 25. I have slides over 40 years old that are as perfect as the day they were developed.
