Just a quick post before I run out the door for some location scouting. Geoff and I photographed Raphael y Boca and their dancing/playing/fighting skills in downtown Austin.
We had an AlienBee in a 3×4 softboox, a 430ex in a 24inch softbox and a bare 430 with a full blue gel on the background.
The main light is coming from Camera right, as is the background light. The fill light from the smaller Lastolite softbox is from camera left and behind the subjects.
I cross processed the images slightly to bring out the blue and green tones that seemed to permeate in the images.
So enough about the images. Raphael has been doing Capoeira since he was 6 years old, he was outstanding, giving us three or four backflips in a row. He went after it! Boca is a fine art major, cool guy, even got some glass shrapnel in his hands from all the hand stand kicks, tough guy too.
