Maria - Dia de los Muertos - b&w
A black and white version of one of the pictures I took of Maria yesterday after she painted her face in preparation for a Halloween party we were going to later.
I wanted harsh, unflattering light in order to help make it look scary so I lit with a single, bare YN560-III with a Rogue grid positioned at camera left and pointing down. The rule of thumb is that the farther away from the subject and the smaller the light source, the harsher the light. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N. Fill light came from a large silver reflector disc.
Other black and white images that I've attempted can be seen in my Black And White Album.

Other portraits that I've taken, either by design or by luck, are in my creatively titled Portrait album.
