With the birth of the twins I’m all out of whack and have had zero time to do any 365 stuff (not that I kept up everyday anyway!).

Reasonably quick setup tonight. I saw some white background stuff somewhere today so thought I’d try that.

Pretty simple setup with 2 strobes behind subject left and right to blow background to white. The background is just an off-white wall in the apartment.

Softbox as "main" light from camera left.

Also the flickr debut of the 50mm 1.4, looking forward to spending time with this guy ;)

Flowers were a gift for Mel from the girls at work. Always good to practice shooting flowers :)

Strobist
Nikon SB-80DX 1/4 power camera left and right behind subject with gobo’s to prevent the light wrapping around the subject too much
Sunpak 383 1/2 power into 28" softbox camera left for main light

Rim was from light bouncing off the background
