I was at a charity even this aftternoon, where I was photographing ugly men (including our own Patrick
 from the forum)having their heads shaved. Some good fun, but this barmaid was helping out and before the place got to busy I asked her if I could take a shot. She happily obliged. I prefer the colour image here but what do you think? This was taken with the D200, SB800 and the beautiful 28-70 2.8:
The SB800 also had the LSPJ on, which I find invaluable!! Watch this space and see some photos in the coming days of Patrick losing his precious head of hair, for a fantastic cause! Geoff

love the colors of the eyes
Great eye contact to viewer. I'm looking at the LightSpheres for SB800s, out of interest, was this a clear/cloudy, and a dome? nice shot, and beautiful capture.
Thanks Oz.
This was the clear LSPJ with no dome. Geoff

Great capture Geoff. The colour version for me. They are great eyes.

thanks Geoff, that was my guess. I'm thinking of getting the cloud, with chrome, and amber dome to balance to tungsten. I appreciate your feedback, and great catchlights too!
Looks like it's a blue or green sensitive black and white, and I don't think that works too well with her face in this pic.
The colour isn't bad though, Geoff. Producer & Editor @ GadgetGuy.com.au

Deer in the headlights! (Nice eyes, though!)
A bit over-flashed for my taste - I think if you had made use of the available light, and turned the flash down a bit (a lot) would have made for a much better shot. Cheers What's another word for "thesaurus"?
I see what you're saying Digi but I thought it was recovered enough to make a post worthy shot. I value your comments though

Edit: Feeble attempt at humour removed - I really should stop posting after consuming way too much red at dinner....

I think it's a great shot. Love her eyes, and the combination with her hair falling over one of them.
Geoff, from memory, I thought you had taken another shot of the girl which had a bit more subtle lighting? Regardless, it is a good shot (I reckon the longer haired blonde barmaid was better
)
P PS. I don't understand what you mean by "ugly men"? I thought I made a handsome skinhead Regards, Patrick
Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935. Our mug is smug
Handsome/Patrick/Skinhead? Oxymoron
Having said that u looked better than I thought u might. What did Alicia think? Geoff

Alicia actually thought it didn't look too bad, although wasn't too impressed with the suggestion that I keep it this short! P Regards, Patrick

Great pic maybe just a tad too sharp for my liking  Canon EOS 40D
Canon EOS 400D 50mm 1.8 EF
Colour - without question.
Increase Contast, and drop the brightness back a bit - lovely image. D300, D200, (D70 - now with daughter) and heaps of Nikon stuff.
