Space Student

‘Space student’ Rebecca Frith in today’s Edinburgh Evening News – my portrait of Rebecca with an ‘outer space’ background. Rebecca did exceptionally well in her highers exams and has enrolled at Strarthclyde University’s “Space School”.

It’s not actually outer space as the EN budget doesn’t usually stretch to that kind of expense.

So against a black backcloth Rebecca flapped 2 dusty dusters around a second before I fired the camera, so the dust is behind her, not between the lens and the camera. And a placed a reflector in front of me to bounce some light back into Rebecca’s face.
