Dag 9: Anvendelse af en Beauty Dish til portræt fotografering


Se - her er der en mand, der har brug for seriøs hjælp fra en Beauty Dish :-) Normalt er min datter model - men hun er sammen med sin kæreste, så jeg måtte træde til selv.

Ved at indstille kameraet på en 10 sekunders forsinkelse, kunne jeg hoppe på plads inden skuddet. Igen bruger jeg en hvid væg i mit hjem som baggrund. En Elinchrom D-Lite it 2 med en Elinchrom Rotalux EL-Strip 33 x 175 cm anvendes til at lyse op bag på min arm, skulder, nakke og hår på venstre side af hovedet. En Elinchrom D-Lite it 4 med en Elinchrom Minisoft-44 Beauty Dish med diffusor tilføjer et catch light i mine øjne og giver et blødt lys i mit ansigt og på kroppen.

Mit Nikon D300 var indstillet på en lukkehastighed 1/125, blænde f/13, lysfølsomhed ISO 200, som den digitale lysmåler fortalte mig, at indstillingen skulle være (du kan se den hænge omkring min hals - meget ligesom en professionel fotograf: o)). Jeg håbede på en mørkere væg, da jeg var placeret 1,5 meter fra væggen, og måleraflæsningen her var f/9. To stop skulle være nok til at gøre væggen mørkere - eller hvad? Er der nogen, der har input her?

The subject is the table cloth captured and post processed with the iPhone app "Camera+".

Two Paths - Day 64

Days are going by - time is flying - we are getting older - the world is moving. Tic Tac Tic Tac. My professional career has come to a halt and it's time to reflect about the possibilities that opens up in such a situation. It's been a month since I stopped at Strålfors and all days (and some nights) has been used to reflect upon this situation. I've chosen to follow the obvious path - find a new job - and all my network is being activated. But another path has slowly emerged - and to no ones surprise - this path evolves around photography. I'm not talking about becoming a photographer, but to become part of the industry. Tomorrow I'll fly to Stockholm to meet some interesting people who successfully has opened a photography museum in Stockholm - Fotografiska.eu - and I'm going to here about their project and journey. The photo that I shot this afternoon in the woods nearby my home symbolise the break from Strålfors and the two new paths that I've ch...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
