portraits

hey, so i received my new ring flash and wanted to post the results. obviously i still have a lot to learn but i wanted to start posting these. I had a cheap 10 dollar flash behind my head that was optically trigger at the same time the ring flash went off. These are unedited in photoshop...just scaled. (btw i sprayed water on my face for a couple of those, hoping it would show more obviously..instead i just end up look slightly sweaty, but ya thats on purpose.)
