Dag 8: Lightscoop Warm test

I dag havde jeg lyst til at teste en Lightscoop Warm flash-bouncer, der er udstyret med et gyldent spejl. Den placeres i kameraets flash sko, så det hårde (kolde) lys fra flashen ledes væk fra modellen mod enten loftet eller en væg - helst hvid - så det tilbagevendende lys blødes op og får en varm glød.

Jeg placerede min datter Camilla på en stol ved siden af en hvid væg. Mit kamera er lodret, så flashlyset sendes ud i væggen og derefter reflekteres tilbage på Camillas venstre side.

Foto 1: Bruger kun den indbyggede flash fra min Nikon D300. Som du kan se, er lyset hårdt og blåt (koldt).

Foto 2: Montering af Lightscoop Warm flash-reflektor. Kamera indstillinger er de samme, men billedet har nu tydeligt fået en varm glød. Effekten er stor her, da Camilla kun er 30 cm fra væggen. Den normale afstand til den reflekterende overflade ville være 1,5 - 2,0 meter, hvilket ville fjerne den orange farveskær i væggen.

Foto 3: Jeg har foretag et par justeringer i LR3 for at forbedre billedet, men det er stadig den oprindelige opvarmning af fotografiet, der dominerer.

Foto 4: Her har jeg lige tilføjet en forudindstilling kaldet "Mocca", og jeg kan godt lide denne version, så dette er mit "Dag 8" -foto.

Husk, at dette er bare mig, der tester mit udstyr. Dette er den eneste måde at lære, hvordan du bruger alt dit udstyr på den bedste måde i forskellige situationer. Jeg kan virkelig godt lide, hvordan Lightscoop Warm forvandler koldt blåt blitzlys til et varmt lys, der er meget mere velegnet til hudfarver.

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.
