Happy Halloween!

This is day one of my three day Halloween project. I shot over the course of three days last week, Evolving and modifying the concept until I got a picture I was happy with.

 

Night one I was out in full dark, but the light leaking from a nearby streetlight was flooding my shot with too much hideous orange light (it's been corrected in Lightroom) There was also a red tinted backlight which I discovered did basically nothing. I also learned that if your strobes are too close, the Cactus V2 triggers interfere with each other and misfire about 98% of the time.

 

Tune in tomorrow for Night two, and see the final version on Halloween!
