Hi guys,
I've developed a real appreciation for the paintings of the classical masters: Rembrandt, Vermeer, Gericault etc.
I've been experimenting for a while now trying to re-create the look with my photography, in particular with lighting and photoshop.
To take this picture i had my camera on a tripod and tethered to my laptop which i used to trigger the camera. I was lit with a single flash fired through a large softbox camera right. I also had a reflector on my lap for a bit of fill. The latter made life hard work when trying to fiddle with the laptop!
Cheers,
Matt
