First attempt at a cinematic headshot. Critiques are welcome.
I tried to use Rafal Wegiel´s techinique using aluminium foil as the background.

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.

An afternoon out on the water
It was mid September late in the afternoon, a group of sailboats were out on the water enjoying the weather, there was a soft breeze blowing, pushing on the sails.

Frankly I would be eager to learn why I should do a cinematic headshoot and cutting of the scalp.
What does it add to the photo?
Other than being hip.
Coming to both photos the eyes look somewhat out of focus on both pics.
And on the first ones the iris is way to dark for my gusto compared to the strong reflex from the softbox.
this makes the eyes kind of looking "dead".
but it may be cinematic though....;)
