B&W version of a three light self portrait

[edG]

Another version of some recent self portrait work -trying to get a better handle on portraiture. Bought a Sekonic 308s light meter and have noticed a difference immediately in the shots.

Strobist info:

Main light is a 30" Photoflex convertible umbrella (shoot thru) with Nikon SB 600 at full power, camera right, 45 degrees, 7' up and angled down.

The fill light is a 30" convertible/shoot through umbrella shot reflective with a Sigma 530 DG Super at 1/16 centered over camera, 7' up and angled down.

An optical slave was fired off the floor (at my back) to provide separation from the drapes in the back ground.

Flashes were triggered via two Cactus V4 receivers and trigger. Settings were taken using a Sekonic 308s light meter.

Nikon D5000 with Nikkor 16-85mm at 68mm, 1/80 sec, iso 200, f 13 was triggered with an ML-L3 remote.

Conversion to B&W done in Lr 3.3
