When you first said Multiblitz flashes I was worried as they are not full studio strobes but i see they are plenty powerful enough to be used with small soft boxes as I seem to be seeing in the highlights of the eyes. Great tonal depth due to soft boxes which are not too big is my call on it. Or not too big foam core reflectors the strobes are bouncing off. It is a great thing to see the flash go off in the finder etching the shot in you own eye and mind. You have a much better feel for if you got the shot or not and have to shoot less. The SLR mirror image blackout makes one overcompensate and shoot unnecessary rolls of flim. Is this slower film because i had bad look with faster film with the 1/50 sync speed. Great shot in my opinion. Great technique.
