The overhead is a 24x24 Lastolite collapsible softbox with an 8" mask on the front, oriented vertical to the model. The other two lights are reflectors with 30 degree grids behind and to the sides of the model (if the model was at the center of a clock facing 6 o'clock, the two lights are at 10 and 2 o'clock). Overhead light metered to f/9, side lights metered on stop below. The reflector is a Lastolite Tri-reflector adding fill below the model and to fill the front sides. Canon 7D, 70-200mm f/2.8 IS L II, @ 160/sec, f/9, ISO 200. Finished with Nik Silver Efx Pro. -Robert Aug 11 11 07:00 am Link I love this thread! Thanks for sharing everyone!
