 The funny thing of this shot is that my shirt is on backwards because I have a hospital logo on the front of the scrubs. If you look closely, my tag is showing. It ruined 90% of the shots I took.

Lit with a halogen light under a blue wine bottle in the back. Maglight in my hands and a single tealight hidden behind a fold in the sheet in front of Jenn.

Tee hee - I tousled with using the same title for my image. Well done!!! Clever lighting tricks to circumvent the Basic Editing rules.

gotta be a top ten. I love the light coming from the hands and the blue background. great job (8)! not a 9/10 just because i thought the shadow under his chin looked strange, and the line of the blanket and black table looked strange.... but don't get me wrong... Amazing image!

This is a fantastic idea and the execution seems very well. However, I think there is a tad to much yellow light on the laying model.

Good lighting on the hands, but there is a weird gradient on the lighting of the person lying down...6 for a good idea

Like it very much
The light comming from his hands is just great
Thought the rest of the lighting is a bit strage IMO
She is lightened from the front left
but this light doesn't go to him?
Maybe if all the light was from behind as is it was all comming from his hands?

hmmm? The hair on the model looks devilish, an anti-Christ serving his own purpose? Nice set-up, the blanket placement is great.

Excellent work with lights... some dim light on the patient's face showing the agony would have added more drama...
