Day 19: Alexine

Day 19: Alexine
Alexine. Administration buster.

There is an empty lot next to Alexine's house, and after pizza and beer she sat and let me set up and test.  I wanted a bare flash behind her to light her hair and a soft light on her face.  The soft light was provided by a speedlight with a circular diffuser. For some reason I was unable to adjust the power on the other speedlight, so I switched it to optical slave mode and set it (I think to 1/32 power, then added a FlashBender to it.  My wife held the main light for me, and I shot a handful of exposures, adjusting the light a little each time.  I'm fine with the outcome, but I should have moved the table away from her before shooting.  I had to retouch that part to reduce the exposure so it didn't steal the show.
