Today was just a photo of this cool dude. Sorry to say this was a quick photo with a special purpose and I just left the 430EX II on camera. Bad on me.

Just as the title implies this was more light from behind. I was working on getting separation. I should have had my head more into the frame to see the full effect but it’s a start.
The key light is the 430EX II high camera right fired at 1/16 power with the RadioPopper JrX and the Vivitar fired at 1/2 behind subject left with optical slave.
Also a little post processing with Topaz Adjust to try and make me look a little better.

Today I was out with my team members to start our part of the spring scavenger hunt. It is all about portraits and we were working on a silhouette today. We had to up the shutter with the sun behind the subject. I tried with 1/1000 and f11 but that was not the right setting though in ACR I can pretty much make it work almost right.

Another view from the office window at a sad event that fortunately you can’t really see. A pedestrian was struck by a train today and later died. He was wearing a headset so maybe that was a factor.

Got out for a short walk with the camera today. The sky was dark and stormy looking but no rain.
I used Silver Efex Pro in the post-processing to get this great holga looking photo.

It has been and is still trying to be a nice winter with a fair amount of rain. Let’s hope it makes it to the top.

Here is a little plant I found today. I think it could be poison oak. I am working on a macro this week for the print competition.

The 50mm is such a great little lens. It’s always fun to run around the yard and see what I can find.

This will be the last ArtHop that I will show in for a while. I need some new work and since I never hardly sell anything I don’t have the money to prepare any new work. But anyways it will be a while.
