Emma Jayde Blue Tone

Emma Jayde Blue Tone

Uploaded: March 02, 2009

Description

Metered the camera for backgroundto get the lovely rim lighting down her side from the setting sun. I then used a flash as the main light to camera right to cross light our Model with the sun. Lastly a flash was used on camera as an on axis fill light.

I like the effect. Almost looks like she has been cut out and pasted into the scene.

Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/250 seconds, Flash: fired, compulsory flash mode, red-eye reduction mode, ISO: 100, White balance: Manual white balance, FocalLength: 30.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 30D
