From a available light test shoot at my Studio Portraiture class, with Ksenia in front of the camera for this shot, and Anthony holding a gold reflector for the light source on the right.
The two cuffs in the foreground were finished AFTER the glass of wine... and the realization that I could NOT stitch through all of that fabric with the needle I had in the machine... DUH, Julee!
I'd like to point out that I'm not suffering from a chronic attack of narcissism. I recently bought a Speedlite and have been learning how to use it (i.e. tearing my hair out) and work out how the thing interacts with the camera, and I like contrasty B&W portraits and I'm the most available person in the house to take pictures of.
So far I've found out that E-TTL is an anagram for a japanese phrase which means "Intermediately Random Metering To Drive The User Mad". Although it's actually more likely that I'm confusing the camera with my "unique" approach to taking a shot!
But this shot is starting to approach the sort of thing I'm after. Do let me know what you think - good or bad...
Hello flickr world!
This has been a trying week or two. My pc was pretty full and I was having trouble trying to edit photos in Photoshop 6.
So, I made the jump to a 24" iMac today, and up to Photoshop CS3. Holy cow, that's an expensive program!!!!!
Now I feel like I'm working on a computer with welding gloves on because I don't know macs and things work differently on macs. Argh!!!!!
I know that everything will be fine in time, but I hate this learning curve bit.
.zack! I'm still coming to Germany
To all German fans, I'm sorry about the football match!
