Fall 2010

Went for a drive down Skyline Drive in Shenandoah National Park last Friday with the family.

D700 - 24-70 nikkor @ f3.2 800 ISO - yep 800 ISO - It makes it hard to grab the D300 to shoot with now.

New Executive Portrait for Julia for 2010

Julia (my wife for those that do not know) wanted to submit a new executive portrait to Bloomingdales for promo and internal use.

Good for me they needed a brown muslin background, I used 1 Ultra 600 in a Medium Light-box for main right side, filled with 1 Ultra 600 into umbrella for fill on left. I did go with a wider stance as to eliminate glare on the glasses. 1 Sb800 at 1/2 power - (SU-4 mode) optical slave with a Honl Speed Gobo for a little controlled light on the background to lighten it up and create separation. D300 with a 24-70 2.8 for a rig and LR and CS3 for Post.
