Small Self-Portrait Set - C&C Welcome

[thorthefifth]

These are a few shots from a quick and dirty 1 flash setup. Trying to get better at controlling light. Confined space and wide angle lens. Obviously the subject is me. I did futz with color temp a little bit and added a vignette with LR. C&C is, as always, very welcome.

Since these were quick and dirty, try to fashion a DIY reflector for your right side and see how the image improves.

Lighting looks ok, but I'd ditch the goofy face making IMO.

They are OK

I'm definitely pulling out the reflector and ditching the goof for my next round. Thanks guys.

If you're just practicing with light, they're OK. Personally, I think the single biggest improvement you could make on your next effort would be to try to integrate a clean background and practice with controlling how much light falls on it to achieve different effects.

Yeah, just a lighting excersise. I'm planning to get some backdrops soon so I can focus mostly on controlling light. I'm trying to get more comfortable with my flash.
