Ok, so i threw a duff image that had loads wrong with it into the Dom Bower Photography page, here,

www.facebook.com/groups/dombowerphoto/10151206673486772/?...

I was quite aware of its problems and would never get it printed or anything, but still i liked it, and still everyone had to have an opinion. Ive noticed people on facebook with fok all worth showing just pulling everyones efforts apart and not really helping. Now here is where i think ill come when ive done all i can to get a shot right in future and im truly happy with it.

Ok, this was taken in late September, it was stormy and we had huge gales blowing around. It rained on and off throughout the shoot and we were really getting battered. Its a real testament to these girls on Model Mayhem, who no matter what plough on happy and professionally no matter whats thrown at them.

Ive worked my nuts off for ages to get a shot like this !

Im using a Nikon D90 with a Sigma 24-70, F2.8 @ F6.3

I have two naked flashes on tripods,
one at 24mm covering her whole body at 100%
one at 50mm zoomed in on her top half at 50%

271/365 - Where There's Smoke

djwtwo has added a photo to the pool:

…there's a photographer with off-camera flash trying to take a picture of it?

I've been pondering shooting smoke for a bit now, and decided today was the day. Bought some incense, cleared out a bay in the garage, set up a table, a dark backdrop, and some strobes, and got to work. Took about 60 exposures, this was the one I liked best.

Focusing was the biggest challenge; I dialed in exposure pretty quickly. Ended up going for a narrow aperture to get a bit more leeway: I marked off on my table where the in-focus region began and ended, and tried to shoot when the plume was in the marked area (it rarely was entirely within the marked space.)

Like my attempts at water droplet photography, a lot of fun, but also a bit of spray-and-pray with the random motion of the smoke. All that said, though, I'm pretty happy with this as a first attempt.

Nikon D7000 w/Nikkor 18-200mm @ 50mm, 1/250s @ ƒ/16, ISO400. Two SB-700s at full power, 50mm zoom, one on either side of the screen, with black construction paper used as gobos to keep the light on the smoke (and not on the backdrop or flaring in the lens.) Cropped and adjusted in Aperture (to make the background as black as possible, and to tweak the white balance to lend some color to the smoke.)

Wanted to get a relaxed TV watching picture out there. Kudos to models who communicate a feeling or idea through an act of will. Getting the focusing right on self portraits continues to be my bane. I decided to take advantage of the pose here to make the out of focus look work :)

I took this at ~5am. I wanted to get taking a photo out of the way as I had something to go to tonight and I knew I was going to be tired. So, instead of something really, really lazy, I took something before going to bed. At 5am. Which is why is makes very little sense.
