About 5 pops from 2 strobes bounced off reflectors to achieve f16 + mild backlight from 2$ flashlight which gives it that glow around the head. PS used to remove clutter and reflections missed while setting up.

Terrence, the carving looks to be exposed very nicely, my question is what would this photo be used for. If it is for documenting the features of the carving then you have succeeded. If it is as an artistic image, something to hang on a wall, then I think it falls a little shore. It needs to have some sort of background instead of floating in pure black. It needs to show depth. Perhaps some sort of glow from behind, or a graduated background sort of thing where it fakes the eye into seeing depth. Something in the forground would also be a plus to help show depth. What do you think?

When I was first learning studio lighting, a friend was teaching me the basics. He gave me a small cardboard box, and a roll of grey seemless paper background paper to shoot it on. He said make this look interesting and show depth. I spent all day shooting that box, and finally figured it out. I know you are starting out as well in the area of studio lighting, try the box technique and see how you can do.
