Tomato Ninja

Another self portrait. No clue why this idea came to my mind, but I sure enjoyed its creation!

The tomato is hanging on black wires that were deleted in post-production. However, I did not hang the tie as the resulting shape was not convincing enough, so I just re-shot the scene until I was satisfied with its position and movement. Took me about 500 tries ;)

 

Lights setup:

- 1 silver umbrella from bottom left

- 1 softbox from upper right, slightly behind the subject

- 1 flash + red gel on a black backdrop

- 1 flash on the tomato

- 1 flash on the knife's blade.
