Karloffian:This was my runner up idea for the hands idea. I’m really glad I went ahead and shot it too. I wanted to do a Boris Karloff menacing creature shot and I think I got it…
Two Sony 56AM flashes, one over my hands with a larger Speedlight Prokit reflector/grid setup, and one on the ground pointed up towards my face with the tighter/smaller grid spot.
