As part of my never ending quest for perfect light, I decided that a ring flash would be a neat toy to play with. It provides an even blast of on-axis light directly into your subjects face, and if the subject is standing close to a wall will generate a "halo" type effect. This was just a test shot that I played around with in CS4, I added some high key effects after the fact and did a B&W conversion. I'm eager to try this outside by underexposing the clouds and sun.
