Seattle Central Creative Academy: Photography Assignment (One Shot On-Location)

I had to previsualize, find a location, bring models/props, light and execute for this pass/fail one shot on-location assignment.  A homeless individual, living in squalor with his meager slice of privacy.  A dirt bike rider, out for a thrill, looking to shred.  The two collide in this scene.

Lit with four lights, I had one Q-flash camera left on the bum’s shelter, two Q-flashes camera right to spotlight and fill the biker, and one Speedlite with a blue gel behind the homeless person.
