Studio Q

A few images playing with lighting in the studio. Shot on the Pentax Q with 5-15mm lens, which certainly looked odd with the IR Trigger being larger than the camera. In fact, it was quite easy to use and it tempts me even more towards a K-01.

John - pic 2 has a little white spot over the model's left ear. Is this a pixel flaw:

Hi John, there pretty good, presuming you were on 100 iso, have you cropped them or are they as shot please.

Cheers

Do you mean the metal ear stud that is reflecting the light ?

Could be that, Mike.. It's just that I thought it sat higher up then where the ear stud might be.

If you look at the first one you can see it's in the same place,

It's the stud. I was so overwhelmed by Melissa that I didn't notice it...

These were shot at ISO 125 and f/8 using studio flash. Minimal or no cropping.
Best regards, John

Here's a version without the oiffending ear stud, which I think does improve matters:

Yes, John - I think as it stood, the glint of light could possibly be mistaken as "dead pixels"... I wonder if a discreet "starburst" effect might've worked too??

I like the first one, but it would be better if you could get rid of the loose hairs in front of the model's neck.
