Bought a simple used studio flash. Thought a good test be to try to make a "decent regular portrait" of my neighbor.

Hey Nicolas, Liking your shot!
I was thinking this morning about shooting something very similar for myself... Basically, I am preparing the Cambo Maxiportrait with a RangeFinder & was thinking to basically do a series of portraits in identical setting for all the portraits in Photographic Typology style (similar to my Close Ones - Up Close) but with random people. Will basically try to set things up in such way that it all works with Canon Strobes so I can go around China where I live now & portrait people in front of simple white paper background.

Kerik,
This is a wonderful portrait - a very strong image which presents her with a tremendous amount of dignity - excellent!
