Creepy Guy on the Prairie

Leesa and her husband Rick hammed it up beautifully to create a frightening prairie scene. Our plan was to create ominous shadows by placing a flash with a blue gel filter behind the villain. Leesa was lit with a second flash equipped with a 1/8th inch spot grid to focus the light just on the window. An orange filter on this light provided contrast and drama. Her $5 Walmart plastic pistol looked a lot more lethal with the long shadow it created! But Rick's machete was real. Click to enlarge.
