The Vacant Stare

My friend Don had 3 or 4 of these doll heads hanging on a wall in his workshop all covered with saw dust and the occasional spider web. When I asked him about them he explained that he had used them as hood ornaments on one of his cars. I, of course had to document them ...... one of which has already been posted on Flickr.

 

Lighting info: I lit this with a YN560 in a 24 inch soft box placed camera left at 9 o'clock about 5 inches from the head. For fill light I hand held a silver reflective disc on the right side. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.

 

I'm calling this a still life and have placed it in my Still Life Album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157635247182331/
