Re: Mirror portraits (NX500 + 30mm)

I'm a full-time software engineer too, far from retirement

As for the CFL bulbs...I got used to them because I use them for my guitar playing videos. They are far from ideal, I know, but I don't have a ton of experience with artificial lighting. I have one yongnuo flash, but I rarely use it. I like the WYSIWYG aspect of continuous lighting.

I used one silver and one white umbrella to bounce the light back towards the subject and somewhat diffuse it.

Cheers,
Bane
