Re: Lighting Technique - Shooting into a softbox

-----------------------------------

Got a few cool ones shooting into the big octagon last night - gotta show them to the model in finished form first - and hopefully later today or tomorrow will get them posted here.  

Actually I think silhouette is something every photographer should play with in some form. It forces you to become very aware of composition, positive and negative space, and how the camera "sees" certain perspectives in body position, because all you've got is the blocked-out shape of the body in the image.  Good exercise for the eye and observation, even if it's not a style of image you want for your portfolio.
