Default silhouette

A recent photography I took at my friend's studio. Experimenting with lights.

I really like the outline of light on the chin and neck in this silhouette.

I like the silhouette, but the white ball is very distracting. Try placing it behind her head, so that you still get the outline but don't see the light source itself.

hey sybren. thank you for the comment. it was more of a creative choice than a standard lighting setup. It was a Novatron light. I should have position the light at least 1/2 way behind her so that the "4th wall" wasn't completely broken. I will continue to experiment. I appreciate the feedback.
