Chiaroscuro VII

Description

Most of the shots in this series were taken at least a few weeks ago.  This one, though, is fresh from a shoot yesterday.  From my point of view, it is better in quality than most of my previous low-key shots.  First of all, I managed to find a brighter lamp, which allowed me to decrease the ISO while maintaining a good shutter speed.  I also shot in RAW rather than jpeg.  My other shots have mostly been (monochrome) jpeg, because I have limited hard drive space and I am trying to learn to shoot well before I start developing my editing skills.  I do like the results with RAW, though, especially since I naturally have more control when converting to black and white.

Thank you very much for taking the time to give me that advice.  I have limited experience and knowledge at this point, so helpful hints are appreciated.  I am trying to be more selective with the shots that I keep; that used to be a problem for me.  I am still experimenting to find the best workflow patterns for the programs that I use.  In any case, if shooting RAW allows me to get exactly the shot I want, it is well worth the disk space!
