The threads with great window light shots on the phaunt forum are inspiring me to play more. I set up Lilly in my office today. This is a WEST facing window but it was pretty early in the day so the light was not harsh. As you can see from my setup it was nothing special. I just grabbed my reflector and put them right next to the window. I was sitting back where the storage cabinet thing is.

Minimal processing on these, only in ACR! I also hung a black fleece behind them on the doorway out of my office.

You can see I just have my reflector on the silver side.. Settings on all these were ISO 200 about f1.8 and between 1/125 and 1/250

You don’t have to make thing complicated, just get a window and something reflective, and go for it, you’ll have some great results!
