My son had his promotion Yesterday and I took a few photos of him before the ceremony. I used my Sb700 off camera flash and set it down on the right side of him which would be camera left I think.... I used the soft box filter that it came with and set it at an angle. I had a look I was going for when I composed this shot. It was a 5:30pm sun coming in from the left side which would be camera right I think... I do not consider this a black and white but more of a cool aquatic. Looking at it, I think of a mans cologne advertisement but, that is just me....When I processed this I was going for a somewhat high key look without it being to blown out. I wanted his facial expression to be serious with a don't mess with me vibe. . I also did not want a super super sharp image especially with this look I was going for.
I tried to keep in mind all the past advice that people gave to me and yet I still managed to get a corner line coming out from his head but, because the background is nice a washed out I don't think it hurts this image to bad but, I should have placed him more to the right or moved myself to the left.
I used the 70-200 vrII and tried to get it as close to possible with no crop in photoshop. I will admit I took a little off the top of his head and not sure if more was needed or if I got it just right.
What could I have done better. Please feed back thanks!!!
