Carved up our annual pumpkins in preparation for Halloween (otherwise known as the Day Before Christmas). Wasn’t planning on it but ended up doing a quick’ish shoot. Simple lights. One Nikon SB-700 inside Jack, full cut of CTO along with dome diffuser. Another pounding through a Lastolite 21″ EzyBox softbox directly overhead, close and canted slightly forward. Both on manual, with inside light set first to get the glow then adding the second to balance. Ambient was a non-issue with 1/250th on the shutter and f/8. Plus I had Scarface on a piece of black Duvetyne that I had forgotten about.
Lighting like this makes me think fondly back to first discovering David Hobby’s Strobist site. And not know WTF was going on.
