p.1 #1 · The Thing That Should Not Be

Father's Day today and the kids surprised me with an Apollo 28" Softbox. WOW!!

So I was just playing around with some selfies, not really anything in mind. Tunes were playing in the background when Metallica's TTTSNB came on... ahhh inspiration.

Strobist:
SB800 @ 17mm @ 1/16 in softbox camera left.
SB800 with CTO camera right.

For what it is, the lighting is pretty good. I'm seeing a slight green color cast though. Was that intentional? With all the post processing fads these days I can never tell...

Perfectly executed! Adjust the WB a little towards warmer.

Yeah, I wanted the colour of the 'Thing' to be off, but that also turned the warmth of the CTO to more of a yellow. Lesson learned, thanks for the feedback folks.

@ merv - thanks, I'm very much a noob and found this very tricky. Would love to hear anyone's tips for nailing focus on SPs.

@ hatch - thanks for sharing your thoughts.
