Storm Inside

Lost in the spell of music. Anonymous in sound. Self-portrait.

 

Yes, yes, the giant umbrella would have been the go-to tool. When crouching on the floor, I'm roughly the same size.

But. I wanted sharp drop-off. Slivers of light. Lots of darkness to create a lost, darkened face. Like a husk of hair and contorted limbs will be what's left/come to mind when I'm dead. And after far too many years being beauty dish-less, it has triumphantly retuned; now I remember the obsession. Almost directly overhead on a boom, sock diffuser with a speed light inside. Second bare flash with teal gel CR angled at the background to create a streaky beam, underwater feel. Radio trigger.

 

Bit of .jpeg compression makes the whites in my hands look blown out, but they are indeed not blown out.
