Anissa Part 2... C&C

BuS_RiDeR · Jan 30, 2011

I finally had an opportunity to shoot a "real person" with my new lights. My wife won't let me test my gear with her... So I took advantage of a visit by my wife's friend and her daughter.

Some of you might recall I did an outside shot of her this summer... http://lh4.ggpht.com/_6EY-HbeYoMU/TMW6rvPcBpI/AAAAAAAACf0/uU3Eenehlog/s912/Anissa%20October%2024th%202010%20-%20048%20crop%20-%20warm.jpg

Here is the EXIF data for the new photo...

Camera - Canon 50D
Lens - Canon EF 50mm 1.8

Shutter - 1/250th
Aperture - f8
ISO - 100

Lighting - Bowens Gemini monolight 400ws (x2)

other than that, a hair/rim light would be a nice addition.

What about this as a re-crop....

This is actually on my list of "things to buy". Hopefully I won't have to wait too long before I can make this upgrade.

Bus... I dont know if it is your camera or the way you convert your jpeg. It doesnt look very good. I just felt like it was shot with a point and shoot. I feel like you lost a lot of information/banding around her face.

I see what you mean. I think its somewhere in the PP process... I'll have to figure that out...

Is this any better? (I didn't resize this one sorry)
