For some reason, I had an idea to do this. Not real sure why, but I thought it looked pretty neat. The egg isn’t really balancing. We have a black serving tray that I set the shot up on and

Tonight I just wanted to play around with another simple lighting setup. I had my Alien Bees flash firing through a softbox from straight on, then another flash off to camera right. The cone thing is the metal reflector that
Church Gig Practice #2
