Description This image is probably my favourite from the series so far. I'm SO happy with how it turned out!

If you look closely, you'll notice there's a slight purple cast on the side of his face - that's from the two side lights I had set up with purple/pinkish cellophane on them. They were very feint but I love the effect it created

Said side-lights were two Canon Speedlite 580EX II flash heads in two meter high strip boxes with grids on. The main light was right above him, pointing down and it was a Yongnuo YN560 Speedlite flash head in a 60cm square softbox, between 5 and 10 cms away from him.

Model: Ren Cronje
Agency: Boss Models
Location: Studio, Johannesburg, South Africa

Great lighting and finished work. And the purplish tone on the sides is just right ... and once again, thanks for sharing the details of your lighting setup. I have two speedlights I can trigger off camera with my Nikon and a studio light I am just learning, so a three light system like this is something I plan to try out.

Thanks mate. I'm really happy with the shadows on this one. It's been a while since I've done such contrasted lighting
