I realized that I hadn't posted this shot of actress-model Tila Tequila on my FStoppers page. I used an optical spot to create a theatrical feel to the lighting. The optical spot is also great for creating vintage glamour lighting. It creates a crisp hard light with defined shadow. Not best in every situation, but useful for dramatic Hollywood glamour shots or even simulating sun indoors when used in different ways. You can also drop in discs called 'gobos' to project different shapes and patterns. The downsides are that they are not efficient with power and the housing is quite large and heavy--not so much of a problem in the studio, but a pain to transport.
Great photo! That backdrop looks authentic from the cirus. Did you get a used one from them directly?
Great shot of a sexy woman.
This is hot !
I just hope someday she realized that the world is around and that she's not a robot.
