Jono
Playing around with high-key imaging and two plain lighting.
Strobist: Canon 188a at full power with wide adapter pointed to wall 2m behind subj. Vivitar 285HV at 1/4 power into silver umbrella setup as a beauty dish.
On the white background that flickr provides, it's obvious the flash coverage on the background wasn't perfect, but it's not bad for a single very small strobe.

David - it's been too long since I stopped by - my apologies.
I think this is a marvellous portrait shot - it comes across extremely full of life and also humour :o)
Great high-key job!
Jono does a good photo pose these days, a stark change from two years ago when the poses were almost unnatural.
nice photo...he looks very cheeky :)
Those eyes... what colour would you call it? Amazing...
I think it's about time I opened up the silver umbrella, got new batteries for my triggers, and harassed some people into getting up to some crazy shenanigans! Look what you've done...
Definitely time for that, 'tis fun and you get to practice on things larger than a gecko ;-)
Weirdest looking hazel i've ever seen... although there seems to be a little blur on them at the larger size which may be throwing my eyes off. Great shot all the same.
Geckos are never rude, arrogant, tartish, or just plain annoying - which suits me just fine :D (not implying your subjects are, just my usual experiences that keep me from people photography...)
Great portrait.... a little like a mug shot, though!!??? Maybe take one side on too?
:)
True, people can be a pain sometimes, but can also be really rewarding too.
I've always described Jono's eyes as Hazel.
I think I'm allowed an opinion, as his mother :)
