magnetoman, this, and the one you posted yesterday, are fantastic bits of work. I love the color, texture, lighting, and mood each portrayed. One would almost think these were studio, even if on location, sets specifically done up for the photographs.

Thanks Bob, appreciate that from you - they’re certainly not studio though. I’ve visited the pumping station many times and know my way round it well, as do most of the models/reenactors. On this shoot there were just nine of us to seven subjects, so much easier than our normal twenty or thirty togs! The models are good in that they continuously offer suggestions as to location and pose, so Ralph popped outside, sat himself down against the door and produced the bottle to complete the scene. There were just two of us shooting him at the time - most were engaged with the fashion model! The organisers do help with basic lighting if needed but there was none with this shot. Quite a bit of pp though.
