I wanted to add a new image to my portfolio that was kind of techy. Here is what I came up with. I always try to keep it as simple as possible. One grided hard light from back right gave me the hard shadow, a 2nd grided light bounced into a white reflector board on right gave me the gradation on the chrome and a mirror on the right gave me the small highlight on the left side of the iPod. I couldn't get the headphone wire to flow smoothly enough so I just used a colored piece of electrical wire that was originally green (later changed in photoshop) and formed the curves into it to my liking. It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool. I spent probably 2 hours total on this shot. Sometimes they come together quickly sometimes they dont.
