An attempt at something new for me, these images were taken in daylight using flash, and inspired by Glyn Dewis, whose work I think is brilliant. I am fairly happy with the first attempts and now, having seen them on the screen can start to improve them.
Model in the first image was street photographer Matt Hart, and both pics were taken outside Cambrian Photography during their winter show.
My mate Jim Moody is the subject of the second image, taken in the same style but with the ambient exposure lowered, and my next attempts will be closer studies.
Both images were taken with camera in manual mode, and exposure was dropped to reduce the ambient light almost completely, then flash was used to light the subjects.
The flash was a Phottix Mitros+ used off-camera and triggered by a Phottix Odin transmitter, which is one of the few options for use with the Sony A7R2. It needs to be held higher in the next attempts, but my assistant's arms would not reach any higher this time (thanks Jude!).
Comments would be appreciated, thanks.
