  1. Papa
    BY SHAUN FOX


This humourous character portrait of Shaun’s
grandfather (Papa) was taken for his portraiture
unit in college. Shaun used a snoot to light Papa’s
face and had to adjust the lighting to avoid big
hotspots on his head. Shaun reveals he also used
an opaque sheet of plastic to soften the lighting.

Camera: Nikon D3200
Lens: 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3
Exposure: 1/60 sec, f/14, ISO100


  1. The Inverse Square
    BY MATTHEW CROSBY


Matthew took this shot during a lighting workshop
demonstrating light fall-off according to the inverse
square law. It may have been a practical demo, but
Matthew loved the rim light that highlighted model
Tizianna’s features, creating a partial silhouette
while plunging the rest of her into deep shadow.

Camera: Nikon D500
Lens: 105mm f/2.8
Exposure: 1/100 sec, f/11, ISO200

WIN A NIKON Z 6 + 24-70mm
THE Z 6 – THE PERFECT CAMERA FOR IT ALL

With its ace 24.5Mp full-frame sensor and quick 12fps shooting
rate, combined with top low-light performance and agile
autofocus, you’ll be able to capture anything. No mirror means
the camera is lighter and more compact than an SLR, while the
Z 6 also manages to pack full-frame 4K video. The super-sharp Z
24-70mm f/4 S is the perfect everyday lens, whatever you shoot.
