This image was my first lesson in off-camera lighting.  The vision for this image was created and inspired by Scott Robert Lim.

This vintage Hong Kong diner was great!  So many shooting possibilities but the owner was a bit of a grump.  LOL!

The background for our last shooting session.  To my Japanese friends, notice the Yoshinoya; it’s taking over the world!  Ha ha ha!

This image was actually a test shot but I kinda like its moodiness and how it turned out.  What do you think?
