Photo Comp - Sept 2011 - 'Creative lighting'

[RiK]

September's topic, as chosen by Stuart B is 'Creative Lighting'

I've settled on the topic of Creative Lighting for this months compo:

On camera flash, off camera flash, continuous artificial lighting, sunlight or a combination of all of the above - I'd love to see some of the ideas people come up with for lighting their pics!

Entries no closed, Stu's shortlist below.
I'll set up the voting tonight from midnight GMT.

usual rules apply

Here we go, my shortlist is as follows:

1. RiK:

Beautifully shot and lovely use of shadows

2. PFVA

Really liked the sun placement and reflections in this

3. Moosedude

The person walking along the beach absolutely makes this for me and gives a wonderful sense of the scale of the rays.
