cgibson, used an umbrella and softbox, maybe will set farther frum subject next tyme.
You get softer light two different ways.....
#1 A larger light source
#2 a closer light source
How is moving the softbox farther away going to help? What size softbox/ umbrella? How far away were they already?
Que?
further away = less light thus softer highlights?
moving the light further away will make it a harsher light. imagine the sun vs a softbox. softbox up on the face a foot away, nice soft light. sun, a million miles away...harsh crappy light. Extreme analogy, but the point remains the same. the further away the light source the harsher the light.
