Thanks so much! I used an SB-600 flash (on a stand just off to camera right) triggered by a Pocket Wizard transceiver. I also velcro'd a warm toned gel over the flash to give it a warmer cast and the set the person apart a little more from the background. :o)

Solitude, for many, is what fuels the soul and recharges our batteries.
Nice job on the lighting.

Not at all lonely, as the challenge topic and description require.

Thank you for taking the time to comment, LydiaToo. While I agree that the challenge stipulated "loneliness", which indeed has negative connotation, to me, "solitude" also stipulated in the challenge description), is not relegated to sadness or negative connotation. Sometimes an evening spent in your favorite place by yourself is exactly what you need. :O) |

This appears to be a peaceful photo... the main thing that is bothering me is that the woman is tilted. I think if she would have been more level, it would have worked better. The lighting works well. ANd I love the detail of the clouds. |

Okay, the lighting paid off and the location & weather timing are good for points. |

Great shot, the lighting, eye catching model, and the sky. Plus you create the feeling of something greater lurking in the darkness. Well done, 10. |

Great image, love the lighting on the model contrasted against some stormy looking clouds. |
