Left: One of the strobes was
                                                    placed outside the room.
                                                    The softbox was pointed up
                                                    and away from Marquaysa.
                                                    There was no other way to
                                                    keep the strobe from reflect-
                                                    ing in the window behind
                                                    her. Besides, I needed this
                                                    light to "push" the blacks
                                                    closer to the whites in the
                                                    room The work would be
                                                    done by the Cine Reflector
                                                    on the second strobe.








                                                    the floor. That still created a reflection though most
                                                    people might not have seen it. I also tried pointing
                                                    the softbox up as close to parallel to the ceiling as
                                                    possible. That created a reflection as well.
                                                    I didn't bother to try pointing the softbox down
                                                    and away from the window. I knew from the phys-
                                                    ics involved that that wouldn't work. That left one
                                                    option: Pointing the softbox up and away. It didn't
                                                    take much power either - about 50% of full power.

                                                    The strobe with the Cine Reflector was placed in the
                                                    door way to the right of the couch at a sharp angle.
