Portrait of a Friend
My friend Brian, who was kind enough to let me live in his home for a month while I was looking for a place of my own. The least I could do was take a portrait of him. Without any flash available to me at the time I set up a backdrop in his front yard, using natural light and a reflector for lighting.
Shot using an original Canon 5D with a Canon 50mm f/1.4 lens.
1/125th sec, f/9, ISO 500.
A note on the styling: Brian was a zen monk in Japan for a very long time and wanted to be photographed in his robes.
