Night Watchman

A self portrait masquerading as a night watchman doing the rounds in a rough part of town. (I was only pretending and I still felt scared).

 

Strobist: Slow shutter was used for kerosene lamp illumination. Gridded snoot with 1/2 CTO gell over speedlite focused on face camera left, a speedlite with diffuser on low power behind camera and slightly to left for whole of body, bounced speedlite to camera right at low power setting to illuminate left side of body and another speedlite with 1/2 CTO gell zoomed 105mm for lighting effect on roller door. Industrial halogen lighting used to illuminate background with white balance and colour added for blue effect in post.
