Risk

This was a fun challenge: to photograph an artistic black-and-white "studio" style portrait of a horse...without a studio.

To do this, I first tried to find a place on the stable grounds that was as shaded as possible (there was fairly bright sun during this portion of the photoshoot). I then choose a combination of aperture/shutter speed that pretty much overpowered whatever ambient li
ght was left, giving me essentially a dark frame before I re-introduced light.

Finally, I used three Canon speedlites on the horse, Risk, to then light him up.

Finally, in Lightroom I had to burn out a couple of spots in the photo that weren't completely black and then convert it to black and white.

240/366--Gone Fishin

240/366--Gone Fishin

Danny woke up this morning with one thing on his mind. Today he was gonna head out fishing before the summer ended. So he packed a cooler with 12 redbulls,1organic tomato, his favorite yellow rain coat and some rice cakes. Then headed out the door only to realize that all 4 tires on his car had been slashed(dam kids), and the first thing Danny thought was "Now How am i gonna go fishin" So Danny sat in his driveway looking at his car,all the tires deflated and then it came to him.--Basement stick in a bowl goldfish adventure! Its amazing the oddest of things excited Danny and there was no way and i mean no way he was missing his day of fishing.--Danny said it really wasnt just about fishing he just loved the mindset of the whole adventure, So there he sat eating rice cakes, pounding redbull and having his old traditional day on the water(well kinda) with a smoke in mouth hoping to catch anything other then those weird stares from his dog. Danny didn't catch anything this year (as you can see hes fishing into a bowl with a ribbon tied to a twig, so that brought his odds down)but like he said that really wasnt the point --all tho after drinking those 12 redbulls in a row he blacked out for an hour and woke up under a tree in the back yard... ..now thats what i call a day of fishing...

Original photo before mirroring.

I thought it would be fun to shave half of my face and see exactly how different each side would be if I mirrored each. I set up an AB800 (1/4 power) with a beauty dish directly in front of my face pointing down, and held a silver reflector on my chest to bounce the light under my chin, triggered with cybersyncs.

I then took the image in photoshop and cut it directly in half. I then "folded" each side over and lined them up as close as I could. Its interesting to see the little differences in each side of the face and how the change the overall portrait!

Westcott Photo Basic Stripbox - 17" x 50"

Alan Wu Photography has added a photo to the pool:

Westcott Photo Basic Stripbox - 17" x 50"

Westcott softbox are medium expensive, but they also have this cheaper " Photo Basic " version. Bought this from B&H for USD69 + tax and the speed ring for USD49 + tax. The quality of the box is quite good with this price.
But the salesman gave me the wrong unfitted speed ring that increased the difficulty in setting it up. And even worse that the tension had made one steel rod spursed thru the tip of one corner. Another awful thing is that the fibre sheets can't cover the speed ring completely and with light leakage.
