BALLET and dancers...
This is the result of having 2 professional ballet dancers in your studio (he was for a couple of years a solo dancer with the world renowned Maurice Béjart, she has her own school), who are up for a challenge and something different.
How do you capture their graceful, often powerful movements and action in such a static medium?
And challenging it was, as ballet dancers need to be able to fix on a point to execute the figures correctly and land on the same spot.
This image is taken in a completely dark studio.
Technically challenging though it is, the results always thrill me.
A bit of lateral thinking of what 'action' can all mean in photography, given the nature of the beast.
We had tremendous fun and are happy with the results.
THIS IS A TRIBUTE TO Maurice Béjart, founder of the 'Ballet du XXe Siècle, a superb choreographer.
These images has been achieved by strobe flashing.
Modern photographic stroboscopy in its simplest form is a method whereby a subject in motion is lit by repeating flashes of light while the shutter of the camera remains open for a period of time long enough to capture the subject in multiple locations during the time of exposure
Thank you, M, (*_*)

This is a really basic one strobe set-up that works well if you are shooting outside on the fly and you don't want to carry a lot of gear because you put your back out the day before :(
I would have loved to add a second strobe as edge light on the right of her face. Ah well, next time!
Strobist Details:
430EX strobe set to M 35mm 1/8th power triggered with Alien Bees Cyber Syncs. Light diffused with shoot-through umbrella.
Also, don't put your camera bag on the bottom of the stand like I did. It's a wee bit dangerous. You can use a sandbag or milk jugs full of water.
Model: My son - his birthday today
Hair - likely the pillow from last night
Make-up: he's a boy
Strobist: strobe camera left, soft box, 2/3 power, pocket wizard triggers
Yes I begin to dabble in studio light. Look out Carlo and Nick!
haha with my crazy hair and a friend's pajamas. Strobist: 2 Vivitar 285hv's (one behind me, one camera left white shoot through umbrella. Fired by Cactus V2's.
Strobist: 1 SB-800 at 45 from left and 1 SB-600 at 45 from right
Photoshop: Curves and exposure until I got my black backdrop
Exposure set to capture the ambient light of the dashboard. To highlight the steering wheel one YN5600III speedlight was used on camera right with a Rogue grid with 25°. Power was at 1/16 th controlled via the YN560TX controller.
I have one or two sharp shots from this arrival sequence, but I'm simply in love with catching the strobe lights. This shot, has just a bit of blur on the nose and engine, but it couldn't just sit on my HD, had to share.
Here's an older shot where the aircraft came out a bit sharper: www.airliners.net/photo/JetBlue-Airways/Embraer-ERJ-190-1...
El modo Multi o estroboscópico puede dar unos resultados asombrosos si es bien usado. Como pueden ver en la fotografía tomada, capté a la actriz Nayra Ortega en diferentes momentos mientras hacia una acrobacia. Para hacer dicha captura los parámetros que use fueron:
Flash:
Modo Multi
20 - 5 hz
24mm
1/32
Cámara:
1/125
ISO 100
F 5.6

Btw, i have started doing shoots for clients.. so, if anyone is interested in getting their family/kids/teens portrait done.. you can mail me at sowmya0304@gmail.com

Photogentic 1250 w/ stripbox as hairlight, behind subject, camera left

Just picked one of these cool 3 way flash brackets off of ebay! It's pretty cool how much power you can get out of this setup! I put it beside my White Lightning 1000 and it keeps up (besides a slower recycle time). It will be nice for outdoor portraits!
Strobist info...: 3 flash (Sony hvl-f43am, Sony hvl-f58am, Vivitar 285), camera center? all at 1/16 power into a shoot through umbrella!! :)
I'm kinda' a DIY sorta' guy, and so I really enjoy building my own sorts of lighting devices, clamping/mounting systems, along with doing some basic electronic modifications. All of this is quite in line with the whole Strobist way of thinking and working, and I've been meaning to post some of my DIY builds onto Flickr for some time. What you see above is a simple lil' device that's turned out to be amazingly handy for me -- insanely handy at times -- and It's also pretty dang' cheap to build (about $2.20). Five of these suckers in the kit bag costs less than a pound of (good) coffee.
Basically, what I have here is a clamp that's strong enough to hold some fairly heavy lighting gear, and a long enough spud sticking out of the clamp so that an umbrella stand/hot shoe mount can be screwed down onto it. I regularly mount my small Chimera Soft Box onto this clamp, a Photoflex hot shoe mount, a Vivitar 285 (with either E-bay trigger or Pocket Wizard), etc, etc...
All of the parts for this (or very similar parts) can be found at Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace Hardware, whatever... You might have to do a bit of poking around in order to find the most important part of this set-up (the "coupling nut"), though you'll likely discover all sorts of other fun and interesting stuff while wandering around. Here's the full parts and price list:
Home Depot "Greenie" Clamp -- $.99
One inch long, 5/16th Coupling Nut -- $.80
One-and-a-quarter inch, 5/16th-20 bolt -- $.24
**Note** I was just e-mailed and told that a 5/16th bolt has an "18 thread, not a 20."
Two Flat Washers -- $.12
One Split Washer (a/k/a: "locking washer") - $.05
Construction of this should be fairly obvious once you have all the parts together, though some drilling (with a 5/16th bit) will be necessary in order to get the bolt through the handle of the clamp.
All in all, this is quite similar to a clamping device that Mr. Strobist (David Hobby) used in his "Speed Lighting a Gym" tutorial, though I do think that the use of the coupling nut is a bit of an improvement. The hexagonal design of the nut keeps any sort of object that's mounted onto the clamp from shifting or spinning around.
Here's a link to Strobist's "Speedlighting a Gym" article:

Myself, I've included some real world examples of the clamp in use along with this posting. Just click through the slideshow for the next two images.
*****************December 10th -- A Quick Heads Up*****************
For those of you who have an interest in some of the other DIY gear that I've been working on, I have a very brief posting on my blog (doesn't everyone have a blog these days?) in which I show a really crappy photo of a new strobe mount that I've just built -- a flexible strobe mount with a big clamp at one end of the arm. If the "click link" above doesn't work, here's how to find my blog:
www.theglobalphotographer.blogspot.com
I'll end up writing quite a bit more material about the flexible strobe mount in just a few more days -- still doing a shakedown cruise with it -- for the moment, what I have up on the blog is sorta' a sneak preview

Playing with my new camera, its new macro filter, along with my big strobe and a box of matches. My first attempt at smoke. I think I may have to get some incense and do more of this now.

OOOOPS ... i did it again! *explored
A moon jelly (Aurelia aurita) drifts near the surface at Blackbird Caye, Belize. The petal pattern in the center of the jellyfish is its gonads, and it feeds on other jellies, plankton, and mollusks. Unfortunately (or fortunately) for jellyfish, their mouth is also their anus, so they get to taste their meal twice. Yum!
As you already know, this is Jerry. Propably the coolest dog ever. Just look how Big he is.

Say hello again to Marion. These pictures were taken during a spontaneous photo session next to our pool. Her tan was imported directly from the sunny beaches of Italy. She returned from her family vacation the prior day. Played around with the colors a bit, some skin retouching in Photoshop... et voilà!
Strobist info: The whole nine yards. My Nissin Di866 at full power shot into a Westcott umbrella from very high left. One bare LumoPro LP120 from the back left at 1/2 power for rim and water reflection. Another bare LP120 at 1/4 power to the front right for fill. All fired by Cactus V4 radio triggers.
