I asked myself:

“Self, what have you done lately that was sincerely different compared to other work you have been shooting lately?”

I answered:

“I did photograph a piece of forensic evidence as part of a story featuring anthropologists and criminal sociologists not too long ago.”

I replied:

“Fair enough.”

I really can’t wait until this particular story is published, just to see how people respond to one image in particular. Until then, I’ll leave you with this one. I promise, there is much to be learned from forensic anthropologists, and after you do, you take everything you see on CSI: Crime Scene Investigation with a grain of salt.

More to come on this piece and others, both in story and lighting. In the meantime, if you want to make a stab at the lighting (it’s really not that hard, just reverse engineer this sucker), leave your best answer in the comments section. No prize (well, there goes the comments), just for the sake of everything that is good about lighting! Have a great Friday!
