Two Kings III
Juxtaposition (noun) - an act or instance of placing close together or side by side, especially for comparison or contrast.
* side by side - check
* contrast - check
Take III of flic.kr/p/R398Dj
The lighting concept it the same, with few changes based on the tips from www.flickr.com/groups/strobist/discuss/72157675553881714/ to try and achieve a gradient white-to-black background.
Main light: YN468II in a small softbox (25x25cm)
Background light: Vivitar auto thyristor, behind the tracing paper background. There is a semi transparent flag and some bent sheets of paper to make the gradient.
Additional notes: Reflector at camera right, just out of the frame, to fill the shadow side of the white king.
Pullback shot of the scene is available at www.flickr.com/photos/147445314@N06/shares/U8eb48
Almost no postprocessing. Basic straighten/crop, dust removal, contrast, clarity and curves/levels only. All done in Nikon's Capture NX-D, my new RAW processing tool.
