Larger size light source? care to elaborate.
nice catch, i did do that. a "bad" habit i've gotten into. it''s a guilty pleasure if you will.
I did a combination of adding vibrance and desaturating at the same time as well as a slew of other things. I'm on what's probably the same macbook.
The glow is from toggling the fill light/recovery settings in Lightroom. The photo was uncannily dark at first (my camera left light didn't fire). if i could have had my way i'd reshoot with a gridded strobe camera left on a low setting so i wouldn't have to get the glow. the same thing applies to the hand/hood. I'll grab that bic/obey/wine bottel logo in PS. Maybe even remove the writing on the mask?
I thought it'd be better than the white back round i usually use. Bed boards ftw. I was considering shooting a brick wall or something and editing myself over it, thoughts? i guess the thought was in my mind. More so trying to findsomething to work with the gas mask prop.

would you recommend a grid for that?
I was trying to light that side but my light decided to malfunction.
Hopefully next time i can use an actual model, as i thought i stated in the OP the model is me so i was running back and forth between camera and posing. Not a whole lot of room to make adjustments between shots.
i'll post the original and the new slightly modified ones soon.
