The texture in the background is a polished concrete wall (normally my grunge wall) and used deliberately despite the beauty dish lighting) and as you know the double catchlights are from the clamshell lighting. Easy to retouch out if desired of course. I don't think that would reflect the light used though (but then you can't rely on counting catchlights in beauty/fashion of course). I can understand why both aspects might bother an experience studio classicalist photographer of course. Thank you for your look and comment. ;-) How about here with more focussed but feathered light? (gridded beauty dish inserted into the end of an overhead horizontal feathered strip light) http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156344992 http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156419984 http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156419983 Cheers Geoff http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman On 17 July 2014 23:38, Alan Magayne-Roshak <amr3 at uwm.edu> wrote: > Date: Thu, 17 Jul 2014 17:37:24 +1000 > From: Geoff Hopkinson <hopsternew at gmail.com> > To: Leica Users Group <lug at leica-users.org> > Subject: [Leica] IMG: PortraitS has an S in it > Message-ID: > < > CAE3QcF4pf-UV6hni0wwdV8ZcYQgX7UMNX95jYjaRNP9wdFj4wA at mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 > > http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156614330 > http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156614331 > http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman/image/156614332 > > Cheers > Geoff > http://www.pbase.com/hoppyman > > =================================================================================== > I like the first one best, but I wish there wasn't that texture in the > background on all three. > > In the third, it still bothers me that there are two catchlights in the > eyes.
