Avram Grant Lookalike Crazy Lenny


Again I used the ST-E2, this time employing two flashguns for the stereo lighting effect.  They were placed pretty much equidistant either side of my subject, side-on.  The ETTL made light work of the exposure, leaving me to decide how much lighting ratio to give to either side of the face, which, as you can see, ended up being 50/50.  Setting the ratio is ridiculously easy, involving a simple press of a button one way or the other depending where you want the most light.
I used no diffusion on either flash to give the 'hard light' effect.
I think it has the look of one of those football manager shots you see on the front of Four Four Two magazine.
You may disagree!
