Here are the parameters : Old Olympus FL-50R flash in a 20x30softbox, probably about 6ft from the subject. Triggered by Pocket Wizard transciever.

What I find very intesting is the low shutter speed : 1/40th second.

Could someone explain how this portrait is so tack sharp without ghost with such a low SS !

Yes. Even though the shutter speed was slow, the duration of the flash is very short, freezing any movement.

Excellent shot. Nominated for POTM, August, 2017

Pose, frame, background, lighting, focus, balance, all good.
 
i dont think bananajack actually took this picture... he just wants to understand the technique a little better :p

BANANAJACK; did you take that photograph? If not, you should take it down and post a link to it.
