Boredom Part 4

This is another WIP update, So the perspective of the table has hopefully been rectified to look right. The whole Idea behind this project is to obtain a new Homepage for Photography By D. Anthony B. aka. DanBoPhotoCo.

I'm still curious as to what the lightsource is in this picture, where's it coming from? The shadow on the chair makes it look like its coming from the picture, but nothing else really shows it. Also, it looks like the lamp on the table is on, so there should be a small shadow at the base because of the lamps bulge in the middle. Same goes for the bottom of the dresser and the chair, there should be a hard shadow where the feet meet the ground and then it should fade as it moves away. But yeah, some hardshadows needed. Also, might want to delete the word "Ashley" from the picture, frames usually don't have words on them. The frame could also use some shadows, looks like its just stuck on the wall there. Also, the wall is too uniform, things should cast shadows on it.

Basically, shadows!

Ok, I'm trying to mimic the original light sources which you can see in the setup photo http://www.flickr.com/photos/danthonyb/2222782888/in/set-72157603800342014/

So I'm trying to put lights in the same general position. The lamps in the right place for a semi soft diffused light to mimic the shoot through umbrella. But I haven't put in an in ceiling can light or something that'd have that spot hardthrow light quality. Also the pictures getting darkened are allready part of the next step in the image. I don't want to do that until I have all the images in as I know I'm going to be moving them around a bit. But yeah shading and shadows is slowly coming along. Also I've moved the light spot caused by the light falling down and at the chair to fade out farther away from the chair and less dramatic so no amoeba shaped shadow.
