My work is inspired by Renaissance old master paintings so often my lighting and editing style will reflect that look. This is a composited image. Photo of ballerina was taken during my October fine art workshop in Colorado. The background is a digital image overlay added in post. Nikon D750, 50mm, f/2.8 , ISO125, 1/200. Two light setup. One key light camera left in 60" octa, and one 7' parabolic diffused behind camera for fill. Edited in Camera RAW, Ps and Exposure Software.
