Firstly, it's a great example of split lighting.
But I'm confused by the phrase 'best I could do with what I had'.
There's hundreds of different shots you could have got with a single light, that phrase smacks of 'I'm happy with it and my gear limits me'
If you were aiming for split lighting, good work, if you were aiming for attractive, you could have done much more with a single light IMHO.
To give a true crit I'd want to know:
What modifiers do you own and what were you aiming for?
Beautiful. Well done. Perfect lighting in my opinion.
SorryTo be honest I'm not sure what a modifier is?
I guess I was aiming for split lighting.... just didn't know it was called that. And no...I know the equipment will never be what's limiting me... it is my knowledge... but I was happy with it as it was my first attempt with off camera flash.
Since it was taken I have viewed a few U tube videos and bought an umbrella, a reflector and another flash but have not found a mode/opportunity l to shoot....
Thanks for the feedback... any further tips would be useful.
