@whoppers1000 I'm assuming you mean the dial on the side, and not the manual control on the front. I do not have a video on that topic, but the Strobist blog has a well written article about it. Basicly, it helps you determine proper exposure. You put in 3 of 4 varibles, ISO, distance to target, F-stop, or power, and it gives you the 4th. This link explains it more in depth. It's about halfway down the page.

@fizzi2008 I don't have a name for the effect, but it's really just combining different contrast methods with kind of a bleach bypass effect.
I use Photoshop for most of my work. I only use Lightroom when I do bulk processing; when I have to turn out a large amount of photos in a very short time. I just like the amount of control PS gives me over LR.

@euphi212

@fizzi2008 Yes, but only on the second photo of each set. The first shots are straight out of the camera. The second image in each set is an example of how you can use the lighting setup and editing to create a very dramatic portrait.

very impressive,, just have one question ,,did u do post editing on these photographs?

@jdalamo I shot the video late in the afternoon under a couple of trees. The light in the background, closest to the building, was pointed at the subject. Note, that I used a CTO on the flash to the right, and a bare flash on the left. You can see a slight blue light glancing off the left side of the subject. If the building had been lit by the back light in this setup, either the building would be blue, or the subject would be orange, depending on the white balance.

Great effect! Curious-on the shots in front of the house, what was the ambient light like? From the video, it looked like it could have either been a gray day, or kind of flat light at dusk...also, on the diagram, the strobe closest to the house looked like it was pointed at the subject, but on the video, it looked like it was set to wash the building, almost parallel to it-can you clarify that? Thanks so much for the video. |
