Bump,bump, bump Aug 31 12 03:14 am Link So many great ones in this thread! OK, here's my humble contribution. Not a 100% final edit, but close enough so you can see what I was going for. 1 continuous light, up high (circled in green) and 2 sheets of silver foam core.  Sep 01 12 12:28 am Link Okay, just found this and I've been MM for a while. Great idea. Outdoors I usually use a simple two light set up and I like to shoot at dusk. This was done using an SB-800 and a shoot through umbrella, camera left just out of frame and an Yongnuo 560. bare about 10 ft to the left and slightly behind the llama. Both flashes were at 1/2 power. Shutter speed was around 1/40, ISO was 200.

Oct 23 12 07:00 am Link phferreira wrote: It looks like traditional Rembrandt lighting on the llama with the light at 45 degrees to the llama camera left and maybe slightly higher that the traditional 45 degree angle in height as there is no catch light in the llama's eye.

Oct 23 12 04:21 pm Link love it Nov 12 12 10:17 pm Link Self portrait:  Nov 13 12 12:02 pm Link Keep bumping. How many times has it been suggested that this thread be pinned to the top. Deconstructing is one of the best ways to learn about the lighting. Even if you are wrong, you will have learned something. And you may have learned how do get the same/similar result with different lighting. There is NO one way to light anything.

Feb 04 13 01:24 pm Link From what I can tell (and I just browsed through the setups in this thread) most of the setups are for studios and using studio lighting. Anyone have anything for speedlight setups? If so could you pm me?
