Some days, I'm just plain bored....

.... and some days, like today, I'm stuck at home sick as a dog.

To pass the time, I try to get creative.






Comments welcome!

Yep!! we all have the cruds here. Sore throat and the such. Really no energy to shoot. But, we do!!

Know how you feel- tomorrow is my turn to be home.
Get better.

Been there, done that. I know the feeling.

I just set up on a small table with a basic background. Two 300ws monolights triggerd via RF. Choice of white shoot-through or silver reflecting umbrellas.



Being a static subject, I can take my time to study the lighting, background, bokeh, focus, DOF, exposure, etc.

Here's the SOOC image:



At this point, I just edit using my ordinary PP system... adjust black & white points, contrast, color control points (to darken background), high-pass filter, and do a simply B&W conversion with no color filter option.

Very cool looking setup you have! Great looking shot too! I hope you get better soon my friend!

Looks good. Atleast you have your camera.
