216/365 # Colour me bad

I don't like this at all. But I quite like the lighting. It's the other crap I chucked on top of it I don't like, but I had to do something otherwise it was the most boring photo ever.

 

I can't buy an idea at the moment, my head's full of other stuff that I'm trying not to think about.

 

Strobist info: SB600 at 1/2 power, 24mm zoom at camera right. Bounced off a mirror which was tilted upwards at an angle of about 45 degrees.

 

I used an orangey coloured gel (got me some free samples from Lee Filters) to give a warmer tone, and I fixed the gel to the flash by modifying my homemade diffuser and blu-tacking the gel to that. Aperture f7.1 with a 1/200 shutter.

 

There's still some shadow I'm not keen on but I can live with it.
