A wonderful shot. I'd love to know more about the lighting. The shadows are striking, with such uniform lighting of her face. How did you capture her in such a difficult pose with no obvious excess tension in her muscles?
Toxdoc42,
If I remember correctly this was a one light set up using a large Octobox over an Alien Bee strobe light. The light was behind me just above my head. Adrian was very fit and thought it would be cool to pose on some white wooden boxes that I had inside my studio. I recently posted a B&W image of my friend Courtney on one of these boxes.
Hope this answers your questions.

I would be happy if that was one of my last shots versus your early firsts. Nice balance of model and photo.

I like it a lot, a truly wonderful image of a very attractive and fit model. I'm trying to decide if I'd like it more if I could see the fingers of her left hand.

Attractive model, but I find the pose awkward.
The tension doesn't add to the photo, to you? Just curious. That and the intent stare seem to meld to me. Bill

The pose is about as sterile as the block of marble on which she is sitting.

Beautiful, and the expression on her face is, to me, most compelling, was that her doing or yours?.
Compelling? How so?
