This is stunning and I love how you've retained the texture on the shoulder and cheek - it is still "human" and very thought evoking. Congratulations. Simply genius light/dodge&burn.

Sensually superb, I love the capture, the crop is perfect, the texture on the skin showing that the model is alive not a porcelain photo-shopped beauty, really well done- everything is there :)

This is a great example of what I understand painting with light to be - beautiful definition right down to the catch light in the non dominant eye.

Behind The Lens

Location

This shot was taken in my studio, on grey background

Time

studio photography so this question is not relevant

Lighting

I used 1 beauty dish with grid as a main light and one reflector with grid for the back light, at F18, 1/160

Equipment

Camera: Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 24-105 mm F4, Elinchrom BRX 500 both lights, beauty dish and reflector both with grids

Inspiration

I was inspired by the big flowers that i saw in a friend's store and I created the dark mood with the black cloth.

Editing

Yes it was retouched, basic cleaning, dodge & burn

In my camera bag

All the times I have the 5D Mark II, Canon 50 mm F1.4, Canon 24-105 mm F4, Elinchrom trigger. If outside the studio, I also take Godox Leadpower LP800X as you can not control the sun and weather (when shooting with clients), and 2 Elinchrom BRX 500 flashes.

Feedback

The advice is what I got when I had bought my first flashes: TEST A LOT! Learn the light and your equipment. The image has one main light on the right, just above model's had (beautydish with grid) and one back light not very high (normal reflector also with grid)
