This was a four light set up. With two bron colour power pack (verso).

There was two lights with the p70 reflector with the medium grids to back light the beetroot(f16). There was a large soft box on the back ground (f8- 5.6). The other soft box was over the top of the beetroot, and angle back to the camera to stop the bouncing on to the back(f8). The shot was shoot at ISO 1/125 f8. The I idea of this shoot was to have each beetroot with a different hair cut. There where five beetroot with different hair cut. One beetroot has long hair, one has short hair, one has short hair cut on an angle, one has hair in a pony tale, one has a parted hair.

The back ground was gray to white. I have plains to add spot light in the back ground as a if there are down lights in the back ground, or spots on the back ground.

Problems with shooting. The fishing line that the beetroot was hanging off, would not stop spinning. The leaves on the beetroot where stuck or pinned down with bamboo sticks. So photo shop will be needed to take out the fishing line (maybe I like the lines.) and the sticks.......
