Water filled my head as the ideas ran through an already busy mind. All I could think about was water! OK, so that was the first part. I knew I wanted to create a portrait in or around water, but what other ingredients did I need to create my portrait as had envisioned it? I would need the perfect lighting recipe and the perfect time of day.
As I drove around a couple of water spots, I was able to find the perfect location! I was armed with 3 lights – the sun and the two lights I brought along with me. It was late in the evening – around 8:05 or so when I found a suitable location and was ready to shoot.
I forgot to mention that along with the perfect location and lighting recipe, I would also need the perfect outfit! Well I brought 2 with me so hopefully I was prepared.
As it turned out, I decided to go extremely simple with clothing and lighting. I only used 2 lights – the sun and 1 that I brought with me and my underclothes. LOL!!
I began shooting and when I got home, I was truly amazed at the results. With very little computer work(with the exception of the glowing light in my hand), I was able to capture just what I was after.
Here’s the finished image
