Between shooting wet plates, I got the chance to sneak in a few Type 55 exposures...

You could bounce light with a piece of foamcore behind her to get that little bit of seperation and still only use one light. If you don't mind me saying, in addition, I think the shot might have been a tiny bit better if you had short lit her-i.e. put the light on the left side of her face so that the closer side is in shadow.

Still I like the light a lot. What was it? Softbox? It's nice and soft but not wishy washy.

Thanks Paul...will give you ideas a go next time...the light was a lowe tungstan thing I use for video work (im a freelance news cameraman) but I had it facing backwards bounring into a reflective umbrella to soften things up a good deal.
