This is the setup shot for my submission for David Hobby's 3rd Boot Camp Assignment. The assignment was to photograph a residential dwelling and light it creatively (using off-camera strobes, of course). As my apartment doesn't have three square feet of clean, presentable floor area, I decided to shoot Amber's house. After studying the rooms (having initially deciding to shoot the living room), I decided on incorporating my favorite part of Amber's decorating--the Live, Laugh, Love signs that adorn the doorways to the rooms off the hallway. They are appropriate, too, as "Live" is above the living room doorway, "Laugh" is above the ferret's room, and "Love" is...well...you get the picture.
After deciding on what I wanted to photograph, I found it quite difficult to find an angle in which to show all three signs as well as a part of the room they relate to. My new Canon 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 proved essential in this instance. The hallway is very small and angled--without the extreme wide angle, this shot would have proved impossible.
After dragging out just about every piece of gear I own, I ended up using only 1 flash on a lightstand (with a white umbrella or a grid as a modifier). I combined multiple exposures (six) to get the final result.
strobist: 1 gridded Vivitar 285 pointed at each sign, 1/4 power. 1 Vivitar 285, shot through a white umbrella, full power in the ferret's room and bedroom, and 1/2 power in the living room. Triggered via Cybersyncs. Final shot here.
Those among you who follow my posting of Pluto Valve control blocks will soon realise this is again another setup and might also think that I am a weirdo to keep testing new arrangements of the necessary components. Unfortunately, that has been indeed true and the reason for changing has always been the lack of rigidity of the block carrying Pluto trigger and its valves due to the quality of the roller heads I used and of some of the remaining components. Also, I have been trying to minimise the size and number of total components used, while maintaining and also improving the block functionality, ease of operation, and its global stiffness. The current block is built around, in this last version, a camera rig I once used to operate a video serving GH4, but not anymore... There are still a number of areas where the current block can be further improved, but for the time being this is my most rigid and most accommodating configuration ever. I also ordered a Keiser RS1 (5510) system with an RA1 mount head as my currently use Falcon-eyes is not too rigid either.

It might be a bit hard to make out the sheet of foam core on the right, as it's edge-on, but it's there.

Getting closer! In this photo, systems are hooked up and powered on, placards have been placed on top of he monitors, and we have some banners setup.
Setup shot for the inside spread. The notes should explain all the Technical stuff.
Apologies for the noise on this shot - it was taken on my compact, on full auto mode, and the silver panel confused the hell out of the flash - hence I had to drag it up something rotten in Potatoshop.

Setup shot for Psycho Circuits shoot, showing a wide shot with both ambient and flash mixed in. Compare to the Flash only shot to see the effects of blending in the ambient.

My setup has changed once again. One 30" wasn't right, but two 24"s are great for developing software, general desktop work and still for gaming. Just about fits my desk!
Looking weird isnt it? ))
