Black elegance ~ 2/52 - a photo on Flickriver

            I wanted to challenge myself a little bit more this week and tried to get my very first low key shot (I like) of Milla. Playing with the flash guns was so much fun and also challenging. To underline Milla's eye color I took an old hazel board and put it in the background. I saw that some of the 52 weekers had the same idea (taking a low key shot) and the pictures you took are all amazing! Here is my try :) I have also a version in b&w which is a little bit more low key and mystical, but I decided in favor of elegance ;)

Technical info: One flash was shot through an umbrella with my self-made snoot from the left. Another flash was bounced off a 80cm reflector from the right.
