Essa foto ta feia, tudo bem, mas já é alguma coisa :)
These shots are for Big Dave Mc and are for fun only. NO INVITATIONS PLEASE. This was just a break from all wildlife today and the sky was busy over my house today and putting on a show for me!
Dave has told me it is a Raptor F22, thanks!, and it flies out of Dobbins AFB in my hometown. We also have Lockheed in my hometown so I see lots of different aircraft.
I was given the assignment to direct an interview with TV legend Carol Burnett. I decided I was going to make Carol pose for a portrait after the interview
Shot with a D850 with the SU-800 controller, IR connected to an SB-900. The strobe is up and left through a Lastolite Tri-Grip shoot-through reflector about a foot apart to give it that soft look.
I've become so confident in this style of shooting-- I only have about :15 seconds to get the shot. I get one crack at it. This is the only photo of Carol by herself I made.
Just before Christmas Mr. Killen and I went to the Carols By Candlelight service at Christchurch in the village.
The last time I went to a Church, I was 18 and my sister and I attended a midnight Carol Service with my Gran.
Well, I didn't get zapped when I walked through the doors!!!
I have to say it was a magical experience. The Church used just candles and the beautiful stone walls looked so mellow.
Very family orientated affair with the children taking part in reading of sermons. I have to confess having an emotional moment thinking about all that has gone on in my life and all that I have to look forward to.
We sat at the back and watched the falling snow through the doors, the flickering candles highlighting the Christmas decorations and yes, have to confess, both of us snapping away!!!!
Afterwards, mulled wine and homemade shortbread biscuits. YUM!
SEE IT ON BLACK
We are words
On pages
That we've left unturned
An ending no one's ever heard
We are a story slowly unfolding
Beautiful words

Walk out of time to get here.

I was wandering around Springer Market Square (Kingston) looking for someone interesting to approach when I spotted this woman wearing a bright orange top, and deep blue hat making her way across the plaza.
She was in a group with two others and seemed to be heading with purpose towards city hall. I watched as they tried to enter the building by the back door, but it was locked. I thought perhaps they were looking for a restroom, so I took the opportunity to offer directions. The woman I was interested in jokingly said that her daughter was wanting to get into the building, and always uses the back door to get what she wants.
With the anxiety of the approach now diffused, I told her how her outfit drew my attention and that I would like to add her to my project. She seemed a little reluctant, but her daughter thought it was a great idea. I insisted that it was her choice to make, and I'm glad to say she agreed to it. She introduced herself as, Carol.
I asked her to move into a shaded area with city hall as the background, and asked a little about them. Carol said she was here visiting from Toronto with her daughter and friend, and the three of them were just walking about exploring the downtown.
I got a few decent shots of her, but she was wearing sunglasses, so I asked if she would mind take them off for me. Up until now I really haven't tried to pose anyone at all (one of the elusive skills I hope to develop from this project), so I thought I would attempt to with Carol.
I awkwardly asked her to tilt her head that way and look this way, stick out her chin and squint her eyes... Not surprisingly, my awkward directing resulted in equally awkward posing, so I said that was all good and that she looked great.
Just as I said that, she relaxed back to normal and made some sort of joke (that I did not catch), but in that brief moment, what I did catch was a very natural expression and smile that ended up being the shot I'm sharing here.
