The modification to the reflector caused significant colour-temperature shift increase,
in the focused the light emitted on our modified Cononmark ø120cm indirect para,
when lit with the shorter-design-type exposed-u-shaped flash-tubes!
As was, shooting this session with a vintage 40s panchromatic-tone style, the resulting, induced-colour shift, as a result of the modification, doesn’t matter, as was using
intended-emitted light for panchromatic styling.

thought an avant gard arty-take at a fresnel type light may suit well 😎

(Of course just had to do another lighting-experiment to see if could reduce the color-shift ... did that and alot more ...
by experimenting further and switching the flash-tube to a much larger tube-design of the 'focused' Ringflash in the modified-parabolic reflector.).

the 150 year-old antique lining into a vintage hat shell.

The lining of this hat is in fact a ‘re-purposed’ antique item.
Originally a ceremonial wolf-fur stole, as worn by some
High-Priestesses of The Occult.

Rumoured to have been the ceremonial red-grey wolf-fur stole
of a very beautiful and powerful Russian Witch in Siberia,
more than 150 years ago!!

Apparently, both, had stunning emerald-green eyes!!
The quality of the workmanship?
Unlike anything Ive ever seen before, exquisitely made.
