Following on from the thread here....
..I printed the following shot out A4 size on the crappy printer at work, slung it in an old frame that I was going to bin and gave it to my neighbours yesterday evening.
They loved it. Until I reported on the feedback Id received here that is
Now they can see all the unflattering shadows too! :bonk: As a result, camera-shy Phil is now open to all sorts of suggestions in terms of roping family and friends in to hold reflectors and so on. A complete volte-face and going against his innate aversion to cameras, he's as determined as I am to nail the shot 
Weve got everything from those silver car windscreen deflector thingies to huge white polystyrene boards at our disposal. What should I use and where ought I to place them for the best effect? I intend to attempt this shot again on a bright sunny evening. Were you sitting in the place of the subject, the sun would be at about 11 oclock and fairly low in the sky.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
