… enjoy the end of a long day.

My submission for the weekly photo challenge at PhotoFriday.com, you can find it as entry #204.

The Setup

Overall I used three flashes, two YN560 and one FL-36R:

• A DIY salad-bowl beauty-dish with grid provided the overhead main light, casting some soft shadows.
• One flash was positioned behind the glass and shaded in a way, so it only hit the steam above the glass.
• The last flash had a make-shift double-slottet blind, providing a narrow accent light from the front:

Just some new photos:

I wanted to take these photos for a while, so today I just popped around the corner to the hardware store and got me a set of colourful pencils. While I was there I stumbled over those coloured spatulas and got them as well.

Cheers

After years of “available light only”, I’m recently discovering the additional freedom of strobist or flash photography. See below the results of my first tries:

Let me know what you think!
