I Light

In The Morning - [DIY Ring Flash Contest]

I had an idea for this image for a few days and finally was able to find some time to shoot it. After taking a few test shots, it was a time to bring in mascara brush - that's when we noticed a mirror and face reflection in the pupil. I kind of like that touch. View "large on black":http://www.flickr.com/photos/morozgrafix/5433187388/lightbox/ to see that reflection. Catch light is kind of big, but I think it defines shape of an eye very nicely. Thanks to Yuliya for patiently posing for me while I was blasting strobe in her face. It wasn't easy to keep focusing on the pupil, our eyes tend to move most of the time and another thing that I've learned is that eyes look very freaky at 100% zoom. Strobist Info: AB800 @ 1/2 power in large softbox (32"x43"). Triggered by Cactus V4 Nikon D7000 with Sigma Macro 105mm f/2.8 - 1/125 @f/10 ISO 100
