Trying to use natural light more lately (and start posting on FM instead of just reading). Here's my latest attempt. any suggestions? simple setup: silver reflector cam right, foam core behind him to lift some shadows.
Not sure if it is your pp or if the picture is a tad under exposed but I think it could use a little more punch. I think it is a great shot though. I like the setup shot thanks for sharing. If your could expose your subject like you did the set up shot I thinks you will have a real winner.
I did do some without the foam core. the difference is very subtle. Also did do I BW conversion. not sure I prefer it to the slightly desatuarated color one posted. its on my www. i may just of rushed the conversion, not sure. use channel mixer to convert (CS1) nothing was really exciting me.
I also think a BW treatment would be my preference over the desaturated look here. I went to your site and saw your BW conversion. I think it could look much nicer with a different conversion approach.
This a very nice image by composition, action, subject and light too.
Thanks for the comments. BW was the intention when shooting it then I was happier with the color. I'll have to revisit it in a day or so and see what I can do.
