Day 7 - Saturday, April 28, 2012



Today I decided to work on my lighting some more.  Although I had all day to go out and shoot, I chose to nap, clean, and then nap again.  My available lighting I had to work with was my SB-600 on slave, and my popup flash.  This photograph was shot with my popflash being blocked away from me, towards the SB-600.  The SB-600 had a homemade snoot on it, to direct the light more towards my face.  I also put a 1/2 CTO gel over the snoot, as the original light was too cool, (this was before I decided to do this shot in B+W.)  Took as few attempts to get everything to be correct (difficult to have the lens auto focus on a black chair while I was operating the lens.  Activated the shutter with a wireless release.  Moderately happy with how everything turned out.

Exposure Information:
1/60 sec, f/4.8, ISO 200, 135mm.  SB-600 infrared slave, fill flash diverted to activate slave.
