Yes, been wanting to do one of these for a while. This was pretty much exactly the idea I had in my mind, so, feels good when a plan comes together. One thing that was reinforced in this piece was that taking the time to setup carefully shortens post production time. In terms of room lighting and post production, very very slight adjustments in a curves layer. That's it.
Lighting Setup:
1) ONE remote SB-600 at 1/8 power through 42" white shoot through umbrella, camera right and about 5 ft off the ground. SB-600 triggered by Nikon CLS.
2) Afternoon glow from outside coming through window directly behind the camera, provided a little fill, I think....

Take a few seconds to really soak in this one ;) | Full Stream on Black
Shot in RAW, this was originally overexposed, but as I recovered it in ACR, the beauty of the exposure became apparent. Had this been shot as JPEG, I don't think I would've been able to process it this nicely. While I think this is very low on the creativity scale (obvious portrait of a face), I am intrigued by the lighting effect together with the depth of field. Kinda 3D-ish and almost looks like a photorealistic CG render.
Hey, speaking of CG rendering, have you seen Emily?: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bLiX5d3rC6o
Lighting Setup: If you look into her eyes, the big glare in the left eye is coming from a window on her left. The top right glare on both her eyes are from a single 42" umbrella (about 2 feet from subject's face) in front of an SB-600 on a stand. The remote flash was triggered at 1/16 power by CLS.
Slight touch up and very little processing on this (ACR adjustments as previously stated and a levels layer in PS).
