These are two shots from a set of images [self portrait's] I shot in 2015. There's no background because the ambient light wasn't suficiently low with the flash to not expose, so I simply used two speedlights on full power and stopped down the lens. The speedlights I used [I was specifically testing out these small snoots for speedlights] where an old manual YoungNuo, and a Canon 340EXII triggered by YoungNuo TTL triggers.
