Project 52: Week 6

Week 6 was down to the wire. A busy week, led to having me concept, shoot and process this in just a few hours today. Need to make sure I at least give myself more time for the concept this week.If you are lucky enough to have one of these contraptions in your home, then you will recognise the expression that I am making here.I used 2 flashes here. One inside of the oven at 1/4 power @24mm, with a full cut of CTO gel, and another behind me with 1/2 cut of CTB at 1/4 power @50mm pointed towards the back of the head, but about 7 feet high, and sightly angled towards camera right. Processed slightly in Lightroom (really, very little) and a little bit of post in Photoshop to darken a few areas and add a bit of toning. In all, not too far away from what came out of the camera, which is kinda cool.
