Ok im really trying to get lighting right.. so some feed back would be great :-)

the problem i have is shooting at night .. wow when you tone map it sure adds tones of noise lol
as you can see with the image of the punk kid thinking hes tough lol

but this is about lighting in the correct way so feed back would be great..

and I get less noise if i shoot in more of a day light or white back drops

all these are just test shots.. cant even think to be creative with it yet. because the lights i think are still kicking my butt lol
