The ball

[PhillipM]

Shot some images with the digi format, along with some 5x4 b/w last night at a Christmas Ball.

A couple of them.

Very nice. Great set.

Well done!

They're all excellent but I like the last one best, the lady and gentleman on the right have that certain je ne sais quois. #1 comes a very close 2nd (IMHO). :thumbup:

Awesome. I love the first one, and like the last one quite a bit too. Fascinating images to look at.

Beautiful images and nicely processed. Well done.

I couldn't find a smilie for a "Gallic Shrug" but I found the instructions on how to do it which may make an acceptable substitute.

...and for those who aren't married to a French teacher:
je ne sais quoi (uncountable)

1. An intangible quality that makes something distinctive or attractive. She has a certain je ne sais quoi about her.

Very nice, are you printing on site ? If not you need to get a dye sub printer you will treble your takings if not more but wait till later on in the night when they have had a good drink

Thanks everyone.

Warhorse. You can light images like this. I don't have magic lights, camera, or anything else. Lighting was simple. One main light camera left for subjects feathered across them. One grid'd strobe for the b/g, and one light with a small s/b camera right for hair/kick.

Easy peezy

I am on the fence regarding purchasing lights, and back grounds.

The same old should I, or shouldn't I.

Then I start looking online, flash, LED, tungsten, I will figure it out some day.

Thanks for telling me how you lit them up.
