Same muse, different eras, different costumes, different setup. Which one do you like better?

Just a few shots - not of the art but the building interior!

Sterling in silhouette
I held a lighting workshop recently. Sterling was the model. I rarely shoot silhouettes but I wanted to incorporate that arch into a shot. Backlighting became an obvious choice.

Bluristic mirror mode
I must admit I have been lax in both my shooting and posting recently, perhaps due to the fact my wife has now retired, and we are spending a LOT more time together doing various activities.

The Sun and the Moon: Edited to add last photo
I wanted to see how my 50 year old Canon FD 800mm f/5.6 s.s.c. would handle photographing both the Sun and the Moon.

Top one for me. Skin tones on bottom one just a tad too bright for the scene perhaps. Nit picking though. Both excellent. Top drawer stuff. How do you get those pastel tones?
Hi Mark,
The light setup in the upper one was a single large octa, the bottom one is a bare bulb + fill so the skin tones were meant to be different and more bright in that one. Also, the first image had a completely different make-up involving a lot of white powder. But I see what you mean. The tones are achieved through a combination of very subtle edition in capture one and about a dozen colour adjustment layers in Ps. It's the interplay of both.
Fantastic work. Thank you. 🙂
